About this map

Columbus anchors the southern portion of this mid-century survey, showing the city's northward expansion into the surrounding rural uplands of Muscogee Co. The landscape is a mix of developing residential areas like Green Island Hills and traditional rural landmarks, including numerous small country churches such as Getzen Ch and Pierce Chapel. The Muscogee County Airport and the Columbus Speedway highlight the era's growing infrastructure and recreational interests.
