About this map

Lookout Mountain dominates the northwestern landscape, where high-elevation landmarks like Shinbone Ridge and Daisy Gap overlook a terrain shaped by the winding Coosa River. In the river valley, industry and infrastructure define the character of south Gadsden and East Gadsden. The legacy of 20th-century manufacturing is evident at the Goodyear settlement near Goodyear Lake, adjacent to the massive Ash Disposal Pond.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the distribution of communities such as Turkeytown, Reece City, and Hokes Bluff, connected by the Norfolk Southern rail line and the historic Scenic Hwy. Significant local landmarks include Beth Israel Cem and the river-carved geography of Tillisons Bend and Tidmore Bend. The map also documents recreational and natural features such as Boy Scouts Spring and Lake Mary Louise, providing a detailed view of the Etowah County landscape as it stood in 2020.
