1954 Map of Gulfport North

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Illinois Central railroad cuts south through the piney woods toward the Mississippi Sound, anchoring a corridor of growth from Lyman and Nugent down to the coastal hub of Gulfport. This mid-century landscape is defined by the transition from the protected timberlands of the De Soto National Forest to the industrial and naval infrastructure near the shore. The 1970 photorevisions reveal the expansion of residential patterns around Handsboro and Mississippi City, as well as the developing Gulfport Airport.
