1959 Map of Leeds

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The industrial and agricultural landscape of central Alabama is defined here by the confluence of major railroads and the Cahaba River. In the late 1950s, Leeds served as a significant junction where the Southern Railway, Seaboard Air Line Railroad, and Central of Georgia Railroad converged. This transit network supported local industry, evidenced by the Black Mine, several Chert Pits, and a Quarry near Dry Creek.
