1950 Map of Jackson North

About this map

Jackson and its northern expansion anchor this landscape, appearing just before the post-war suburban shift fully transformed the outskirts of Madison County. The map captures the city's established core, including the campus of Lane College and the General Hospital, while the northern reach shows a patchwork of rural school districts and family cemeteries. Significant industrial activity is evident at the Brick Kilns near Gilmore, while residential pockets like Hicksville and Westwood Gardens begin to bridge the gap between the city center and the agrarian north.
