About this map

Blacksburg and Christiansburg dominate this mid-1960s landscape, illustrating the rapid mid-century development of Montgomery County. The campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University is a central focal point, featuring Lane Stadium and the VPI Airport alongside the sprawling Prices Fork Research Center. This era shows a transition from agrarian roots to a regional educational and research hub, yet many traditional landmarks remain visible.
