1959 Map of Boone Dam

About this map

Boone Dam anchors this landscape in eastern Tennessee, where the South Fork Holston River meets the Watauga River to form a complex network of reservoirs. The impounded waters of Boone Lake and Fort Patrick Henry Lake dominate the terrain, surrounding elevated points like Shannon Knob and Spurgeon Knob. This era shows the infrastructure of the Tennessee Valley Authority in full effect, with the Tri-City Airport serving as a regional hub near the growing community of Colonial Heights.
