About this map

Fort Bragg military infrastructure dominates the landscape of this 1970s orthophotograph, showcasing the significant federal footprint in Cumberland County. The imagery, rectified from 1976 aerial photography, reveals the high-density residential and operational layout of the post alongside more rural patterns. To the northwest, the settlement of Manchester sits near the winding corridors of the Little River and its surrounding wooded terrain. The transition from the developed military installation to the dispersed residential pockets around Twin Lakes highlights the dual nature of this region as both a strategic defense hub and a growing residential area during the mid-1970s. This specific survey serves as a visual record of the land use patterns before the further expansion of the Fayetteville area.
