1999 Map of Buena Vista

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The industrial and academic hub of Buena Vista anchors this landscape where the Maury River meets the steep ascent of the Blue Ridge. At the turn of the millennium, the city layout reveals a transition from the riverfront Sewage Disposal and athletic facilities to the historic campus of Southern Seminary Jr College and McCluer High Sch. To the east, the map documents the high-altitude transit corridor of the Blue Ridge Parkway, which winds along the crest through the George Washington National Forest. This ridge serves as a major recreational artery, dotted with scenic viewpoints like the House Mountains Overlook and the Rice Mtn Overlook. Further into the forest, the Appalachian Trail follows the remote terrain past the Brown Mtn Creek Shelter, while the Lynchburg Reservoir sits tucked within the eastern valleys, providing a critical water source for the region.
