1951 Map of Broad Creek

About this map

Florence and Alice serve as the primary landward anchor for this coastal survey of the lower Neuse River and Pamlico Sound. The landscape is dominated by the intricate interplay of water and marsh, particularly within Township No 2, where numerous finger-like waterways such as Pittman Creek, Burton Creek, and Parris Creek carve into the shoreline. These creeks surround distinctive points of land like Grace Point and Skate Point, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of Carteret County before modern development.
