About this map

Hominy Creek defines the industrial and residential development of this Buncombe County landscape, where the Southern railway line runs parallel to the waterway. This era of mapping shows the early footprint of Enka and Enka Village alongside the expansive Enka Lake, illustrating the intersection of manufacturing and local life. To the west, the landscape transitions into the smaller rural settlements of Candler and Luthers, surrounded by a high density of community institutions including Westland Ch, Liberty Ch, and the Pisgah Industrial Institute.
