1893 Map of Chattanooga

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

The Tennessee River dominates this late nineteenth-century landscape, winding past Chattanooga and carving deep loops through the surrounding plateaus. This era was defined by a complex river-and-rail economy, evidenced by numerous river crossings like Brown Ferry, Igou Ferry, and Eldridge Landing. The industrial footprint of the region is visible in the southwestern corner near Lookout Mountain, where the McNabb Mines and Aetna Mines are located, while the Grindstone Mill sits to the east near Ooltewah.
