1993 Map of Lake Wylie

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Lake Wylie dominates this borderland landscape where the Catawba River crosses between North and South Carolina. This 1990s revision reveals the intensive residential and recreational development along the shoreline, notably around Tega Cay and Lakewood. While the lake's fingers reach deep into the surrounding hills, many older landmarks remain visible on the higher ground. Genealogists and local historians can locate several historic congregations including China Grove Ch, Allison Creek Ch, and Pine Grove Ch. At the south end of the map, the Wylie Dam stands as a primary engineering feature, while the York County Nature Museum and Buster Boyd Bridge serve as focal points for the community's mid-century expansion. The map also highlights industrial and utility sites like the substation at Concord and the radio towers near Five Points.
