1964 Map of Lula

About this map

Lula serves as the focal point of this North Georgia survey, situated at the crossroads of the Southern railroad line and the tri-county border of Banks, Hall, and Habersham. The landscape is defined by the transition from the rolling terrain of Skitt Mountain down to the upper reaches of Lake Sidney Lanier. The waters of the Chattahoochee River wind through the center, crossed by the Belton Bridge and Lula Bridge. Numerous rural congregations, such as Pleasant Grove Ch, Bethlehem Ch, and Enon Ch, anchor the small communities that dot the hillsides. The mapping reflects a period of mid-century growth where established agricultural settlements like Glades met the rising waters of the new reservoir system.
