1949 Map of Charlottesville

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Charlottesville serves as the focal point of this mid-century landscape, where the confluence of the North Fork Rivanna River and South Fork Rivanna River defines the local topography. The city's growth is evidenced by institutions such as the Blue Ridge Sanatorium and Monroe Memorial Park. Beyond the urban center, the Southwest Mountains dominate the eastern half of the map, rising above historic rural communities like Cismont, Keswick, and Shadwell.
