About this map

Birmingham expansion and the growing suburbs of Homewood and Mountain Brook dominate this mid-century topographic record. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of Shades Mountain and Shades Ridge, which separate the industrial rail corridors of the Southern and Nashville lines from the residential developments in the south. The map documents an era of significant institutional growth, featuring the campus of Howard College and numerous local landmarks like Vulcan Park and the expansive Elmwood Cemetery.
