USGS Topo · Published 1952About this map
Lenoir City serves as the focal point of this 1940 field examination, situated at the confluence of the Tennessee River and the Little Tennessee River. The landscape is dominated by the newly formed Watts Bar Reservoir, where the rising waters frame a series of distinctive landforms like Browder Bend and Harrison Bend. The area reflects a transition from traditional river-based life to a more modern infrastructure, with the Broadway of America and the Southern railroad providing critical transport links through the ridges.
