1966 Map of Blackstone East

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Fort Pickett Military Reservation dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its sprawling installation infrastructure and networks of observation towers contrasting with the civilian life in neighboring Blackstone. The town serves as a regional hub for the Norfolk and Western Railway, which cuts across the northern terrain near Spring Hill Ch. This survey illustrates the Cold War era footprint of the area, featuring the massive Blackstone Airport and the complex layout of the military base alongside quiet rural features like Faith Ch and the Nottoway Reservoir. The convergence of Nottoway, Brunswick, and Dinwiddie counties occurs along the Nottoway River, where the landscape transitions into a network of streams including Tommeheton Creek and Butterwood Creek.
