1977 Map of Lexington West

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Lexington anchors the eastern edge of this orthophotograph, showing the city's suburban and industrial reach into the Piedmont landscape during the late 1970s. The aerial imagery captures a detailed transition from the urban grid of Lexington to the mosaic of small farms and wooded plots that define the surrounding countryside. This specific view highlights the development patterns at Reeds Crossroads and Tyro, where crossroads settlements maintained their distinct character amidst increasing connectivity. To the south, Linwood sits near the rail and highway corridors that have long shaped the region's economy. Smaller residential clusters like Meadowview and Jakesville are visible, providing a clear look at local land use and property boundaries before more recent decades of growth altered the rural fabric of Davidson County.
