1975 Map of Gantts Quarry SW

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Coosa River frontage and the upland ridges of central Alabama define this orthophotoquad, captured via aerial imagery in late 1975. The settlement of Talladega Springs occupies the northern reaches, while the smaller community of Marble Valley is situated further south among the wooded hills. Unlike a traditional line-drawn map, this imagery reveals the specific land-use patterns of the mid-1970s, showing the clearings for agriculture and timber alongside the winding riverbanks. The Coosa River appears here as a significant waterway, with its distinctive inlets and shoreline topography clearly visible before further modern development. This document serves as a grounded reference for researchers studying the physical landscape and rural settlement distribution in this portion of the state during the post-war era.
