About this map

The Chattahoochee River carves a path between Georgia and Alabama, serving as the central artery for Columbus and Phenix City. In this mid-2010s landscape, the urban fabric is composed of numerous distinct neighborhoods and early suburbs, ranging from Bibb City and Rose Hill in the north to Baker Village and Riverland Terrace further south. The map provides significant genealogical value through its detailed labeling of local resting places, including the large Linwood Cem, Porterdale Cem, and Evergreen Memory Gardens Cem.

Military history is embedded in the southern terrain, where the edge of a major installation is visible through named thoroughfares such as 2nd Armored Division Rd and 11th Airborne Div Rd. The topography transitions from the gridded streets of Weracoba Heights and Dinglewood to the more varied drainage basins of Bull Cr and Upatoi Cr, illustrating the city's expansion into the surrounding creek valleys.
