About this map

The Cumberland River dominates this mid-century landscape, newly transformed into Lake Barkley with a documented normal pool elevation of 359 feet. The settlement of Canton sits at a historic crossing point, now connected by the Lawrence Mem Bridge as the river widens into expansive bays like Pond Bay and Crooked Creek Bay. This era shows the early development of recreational and residential areas following the lake's creation, including Shawnee Hills and Blue Spring Estates, alongside the established Lake Barkley State Park.
