About this map

Fairfax Station and the surrounding suburban expansion define this mid-century landscape in Fairfax County. The Southern RR railroad corridor remains a primary transit artery, connecting established communities like Jermantown and Legato while newer residential developments such as Lord Fairfax Estates and Country Club Hills begin to fill the wooded gaps. The map captures an era of educational and spiritual growth, evidenced by numerous institutions like the Eleven Oaks Sch and St Marys Ch.
