1893 Map of Chattanooga

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

Chattanooga serves as the focal point of this late 19th-century survey, positioned where the Tennessee River makes its dramatic loops around Lookout Point and Williams Island. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of industrial infrastructure, particularly the concentration of rail lines including the Cincinnati Southern Railroad and the Western and Atlantic R.R. that converge on the city. Beyond the urban center, the map reveals the era's reliance on river crossings like Brown Ferry and Igou Ferry before modern bridge networks dominated the valley.
