1964 Map of Covington

About this map

Covington and the neighboring academic community of Oxford serve as the primary anchors of this mid-century Georgia landscape. The map illustrates a period of industrial and infrastructure transition, with the Seaboard Coast Line and Georgia railroads intersecting near the city's commercial core, while the newer paths of Interchange 46 and Interchange 47 signal the coming highway era. Beyond the urban limits, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Alcovy River and its numerous tributaries, including Dried Indian Creek and Cornish Creek.
