1955 Map of Fortson

About this map

Columbus expands northward into the surrounding hills of Muscogee County on this map, which documents the urban-rural interface during the mid-20th century. The landscape is defined by its transition from the dense street grids of neighborhoods like Caroline Park and Cascade Hills to the more open, wooded terrain of Fortson and Nankipooh. Significant infrastructure serves the growing population, including the Metropolitan Airport and several academic institutions such as Double Churches School and Rosemont School.
