1893 Map of Chattanooga

USGS Topo · Published 1893

About this map

Chattanooga serves as the industrial and transportation anchor of this late 19th-century landscape, where the Tennessee River winds beneath the heights of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. The map reveals a river-driven economy before modern dam systems, evidenced by numerous crossings like Brown Ferry, Harrison Ferry, and Eldridge Landing. The influence of heavy industry and natural resource extraction is clear at the Mc Nabb Mines and Aetna Mines near the river, as well as the Grindstone Mill to the east.
