About this map

The Tar River defines the southern reach of this landscape, meandering past Center Bluff and Clark Banks toward the growing outskirts of Greenville. In the early 1980s, this region of Pitt County maintained a distinct rural character, dominated by the expansive Grindle Pocosin and the Great Swamp to the north. A significant international communications landmark, the Edward R Murrow Transmitting Station of Voice of America (USIA), occupies a large tract in the southwest, reflecting the area's role in Cold War-era broadcasting. Small crossroads communities like Belvoir and Tyson are anchored by local institutions such as Gum Swamp Ch and Holly Hill Ch. The mapping also captures the Pitt - Greenville Airport and several cemeteries, providing a detailed look at the transition from swampy lowlands to established settlement patterns and essential infrastructure during this period.
