1960 Map of Memphis

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Mississippi River dominates this mid-century portrait of the border between Tennessee and Arkansas, a landscape defined by industrial expansion and the shifting alluvial geography of the Presidents Island No. 45 and Vice Presidents Island No. 46. On the eastern bank, the urban footprint of Memphis extends through Frayser and Whitehaven, where an Industrial Development Area reflects post-war growth near T O Fuller State Park.
