1953 Map of Blounts Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The wide Pamlico River dominates this mid-century survey, dividing the landscape into distinct shoreline communities. On the north bank, the Washington Yacht and Country Club and the residential area of River Acres mark the development near the river's bend, while the expansive Goose Creek State Park preserves the tidal wetlands around Little Goose Creek. This area illustrates the transition from mid-century leisure sites like Camp Leach and Camp Hardee to the burgeoning suburban character of Shady Banks.
