About this map

The Tennessee River creates the defining horseshoe loop at Moccasin Bend, anchoring a complex urban and industrial landscape just before the 1970s. This survey illustrates the dense concentration of rail infrastructure essential to the city's identity, featuring the Cravens Yards (L & N), Wauhatchie Yards (L & N), and routes of the Southern Ry. The dramatic elevation changes from the Cumberland Escarpment and Signal Mountain down to the Tannery Flats highlight the geographic constraints that shaped local development.
