Moccasin Bend dominates the riverine landscape where the Tennessee River makes its dramatic hairpin turn, overlooked by the prominent heights of Lookout Mountain. This 2013 survey details the modern urban core and its industrial infrastructure, featuring large rail operations at Cravens Yards and the Shipps Yards. The map documents the historic gateway to the city, from the Chief John Ross Bridge spanning the river to the Missionary Ridge Tunnel to the east. Cultural landmarks like the Tennessee Aquarium and the Old Stone Church Tower stand alongside historical sites such as Point Park and the Cravens House. The surrounding residential development is marked by a complex of neighborhoods including North Chattanooga, Lupton City, and Stuart Heights, while the river's navigational history is preserved in labels for Browns Ferry and various shoals and bars that once challenged river pilots.
