1951 Map of Cape Lookout
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
Cape Lookout and the narrow barrier peninsula of Core Banks are the focal points of this mid-century maritime survey. The landscape is defined by shifting sands and the critical infrastructure of Atlantic navigation, dominated by the Cape Lookout Lighthouse and its associated light. A complex of structures at the U. S. Coast Guard Sta Radio Towers signifies the area's importance for coastal safety and communication during the post-war era.
