1957 Map of Fayetteville

About this map

Fayetteville State University anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, reflecting a period of mid-century urban expansion and institutional growth. The urban core of Fayetteville is densely detailed with civic infrastructure, including the Courthouse, City Hall, and health facilities like Highsmith Hospital and the Sanatorium. Outside the center, the map documents the emergence of suburban patterns, with scattered settlements such as Bonnie Doone, Skibo, and Lakedale interspersed among winding creeks and lakes.
