About this map

Watts Bar Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this 1940 survey, reflecting the massive hydrological changes brought to the Tennessee River by the Tennessee Valley Authority. The river's winding course is marked by traditional crossings like Bussell Ferry and Hall Ferry, which appear alongside emerging industrial markers like the Rock Quarry Bar. The transition from old rural networks to modern thoroughfares is evident as the Old Walton Road and the Broadway of America intersect the terrain near Eaton Crossroad.
