1953 Map of Fountain City

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Blackoak Ridge and Beaver Ridge define the northeast-to-southwest grain of this landscape just north of Knoxville in the early 1950s. The settlement of Fountain City serves as a primary hub, showing a dense residential grid that transitions into industrial and institutional sites like the Beverly Hills Sanatorium and the East Tennessee Tuberculosis Hospital. This era captures the area's mid-century expansion along major arteries like Broadway and the Norris Freeway, while older rural footprints remain visible at Halls Crossroads and Pedigo.
