1969 Map of High Point West

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The industrial corridor of the North Carolina Piedmont is well-defined here as the corporate limits of High Point and Thomasville begin to converge during the late 1960s. This survey illustrates the dense urban grid of High Point’s western side, featuring the City Hall County Bldg and numerous educational institutions like Oak Hill Sch and Tomlinson Sch. The landscape between the cities is marked by the winding courses of Rich Fork and Abbotts Creek, which carve through the terrain near Westchester Academy and the Willow Creek Country Club. Significant transportation infrastructure, including the Southern Ry and the Carolina and Northwestern Ry, underscores the region's historic role as a furniture and manufacturing hub. Smaller settlements and neighborhoods like Oakview, Erwin Heights, and Jimmys appear alongside vital local landmarks such as Mendenhall Airport and City Memorial Hospital.
