1956 Map of Macon West

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Macon and its westward expansion are recorded here just before the interstate era, centered on a dense network of institutional and educational landmarks. The prestigious grounds of Wesleyan College anchor the northwestern corner, while Mercer University and the Georgia Academy for the Blind highlight the city's role as a regional center for learning and social services. To the south, the massive U S Naval Reservation Ordnance Plant indicates the significant military-industrial footprint remaining after the mid-century wars, situated near the Central of Georgia and Southern Railway corridors.
