1938 Map of Drewrys Bluff

About this map

The James River south of Richmond is dominated by an extensive network of defensive Breastworks and fortifications in this late 1930s landscape. Strategic high points like Drewrys Bluff and Fort Darling overlook the river's bend, while the eastern bank is lined with sites including Fort Alexander, Fort Gilmer, and Fort Hoke. This survey reveals the transition between military history and modern industry, specifically noting the large Cellophane-Rayon Factory near the riverbank.
