1950 Map of Kittredge

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The West Branch Cooper River and the East Branch Cooper River converge at The Tee, defining a landscape of low-lying wetlands and historic riverfront estates. This mid-century survey illustrates the transition from the old plantation economy to modern industrial and military uses, evidenced by the expansive U S Naval Reservation in the south and the Cote Bas Substation. Significant local history is preserved in labels for Strawberry Chapel and the nearby Childsbury settlement site, alongside the educational and religious anchors of the African American community at Promised Land Sch and Promised Land Ch (Col). The mapping of the Seaboard Coast Line and various landings like Strawberry Landing and Hagan Landing reveals how commerce moved through these coastal lowlands. The presence of Cypress Gardens and the Francis Marion National Forest highlights the shift toward land conservation and public recreation.
