1962 Map of Marion East

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The eastern outskirts of Marion and the rising peaks of the Pisgah National Forest characterize this McDowell County landscape in the early 1960s. The northern reaches are dominated by the winding shorelines of Lake James and the Catawba River, where the Burke Co McDowell Co line crosses the water. Industrial and transportation hubs like the Clinchfield Railroad and the Southern railway converge near East Marion, supporting a region defined by both mountain topography and growing rail infrastructure.
