USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
The industrial and residential growth of Kingsport centers on the confluence of the North Fork Holston River and South Fork Holston River just before World War II. The layout of the city reveals planned neighborhoods like Borden Village and Beechwood Village, positioned near the critical Clinchfield Railroad corridor. The river network, characterized by landmarks like Tillhammer Shoals and Clouds Bend, dictates the settlement patterns of outlying communities such as Pactolus and Whitesburg.
