1941 Map of Glen Allen

Transportation infrastructure shows a mix of the old and emerging, with the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac RR running parallel to the Potomac and Washington Highway. Significant landmarks like the Laurel Golf Club and a Fire Tower near Broad Street Road indicate the early 20th-century development of the area before the post-war suburban expansion. Smaller watercourses like Beech Creek and Hungary Creek feed into the river, threading through a landscape dominated by timber and small-scale agriculture.
