1984 Map of Huntsville

About this map

The Tennessee River corridor anchors this 1980s-era study, winding past the sprawling Redstone Arsenal and through the vast Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge. While Huntsville shows significant urban expansion, the map clearly delineates the sharp transition from the valley floor to the soaring heights of the Cumberland Plateau in the east. The landscape is a mix of high-tech defense sites and deep-rooted agricultural communities like Meridianville and New Market.
