1947 Map of Columbus City

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Guntersville Lake dominates this mid-century landscape, a flooded valley where the Tennessee River meets steep ridges. The 1947 topography, later updated with purple woodland revisions, shows the intricate shoreline of the reservoir around Columbus City and Meltonsville. This area reflects the profound changes brought by the Tennessee Valley Authority, with former lowlands submerged and new boundaries established for Lake Guntersville State Park.
