Buena Vista serves as the focal point of this survey, positioned along the banks of the Maury River where the street grid of the city meets the rising peaks of the Blue Ridge. The map details the local infrastructure of the early 21st century, including Southern Virginia University and the Buena Vista Post Office. Beyond the urban core, the landscape transitions into the steep elevations of Elephant Mountain and Garnet Peak, where various overlooks like the Buena Vista Overlook and Rice Mountain Overlook offer views of the valley below.
