1957 Map of Knoxville

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the high peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains dominate this regional survey, capturing the Southern Appalachians during a period of expanding motor tourism and hydroelectric development. The terrain is anchored by massive elevations like Mt Mitchell, Clingmans Dome, and Mt Le Conte, while the Blue Ridge Parkway snakes across the ridges. Major reservoir systems including Fontana Lake and Douglas Lake illustrate the mid-century transformation of the river valleys by the Tennessee Valley Authority.
