1972 Map of Fort Jackson North

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Fort Jackson Military Reservation occupies a massive portion of the eastern landscape, defined by a complex network of training grounds and firing ranges. To the west, the growing suburbs of Columbia and Forest Acres show a mid-century transition from open land to dense residential development. This era is marked by a significant concentration of public and charitable institutions, including the State Hospital, the County Prison Camp, and several residential youth facilities such as the Carolina Childrens Home and Epworth Childrens Home. The hydrology of the area is heavily modified, with a series of artificial lakes and reservoirs including Windsor Lake, Carys Lakes, and Spring Lake that define the character of neighborhoods like Arcadia Lakes. Leisure and conservation are anchored by the expansive Sesquicentennial State Park, while the rise of the interstate system is evidenced by numerous new interchanges cutting through the traditional landscape.
