About this map

Buford Dam anchors this mid-century landscape where the Chattahoochee River meets the expanding waters of Lake Sidney Lanier. The map documents the transformative impact of the reservoir on Forsyth County, showing how rising water levels reshaped the local drainage basins of Baldridge Creek and Young Deer Creek. While the reservoir introduced modern recreation sites like Mary Alice Park and the Baldridge Marina, the surrounding uplands retain many older rural markers.
