About this map

Hartselle serves as the central hub of this 1930s landscape, where the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and the Bee Line Valley Highway intersect to define the town's grid. The era's transformation of the Tennessee Valley is evident along the northwestern edge, where the newly formed Wheeler Reservoir meets the winding course of Flint Creek. This shift from traditional river bottoms to reservoir shoreline is captured just as the Tennessee Valley Authority was reshaping local geography, including the establishment of CCC Camp No 3485 north of the town center.
