About this map

The Adams Creek Canal and the Intracoastal Waterway define the industrial and maritime landscape of this coastal Carteret County region during the early 1950s. This waterway network serves as a critical artery for commerce, linking the Newport River with northern waters, while the Barge Landing Basin at Core Creek suggests a hub for local transportation and trade. The surrounding landscape is a complex mix of marshes and timberland, with the eastern edge of the Croatan National Forest bordering the tidal reaches of Harlowe Creek.
