1964 Map of Meridianville
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Meridianville and the northern outskirts of Huntsville appear here during a period of significant mid-century suburban expansion. The map is defined by the prominent heights of Wade Mountain and Smithers Mountain, which separate the flat farmland to the north from the growing residential developments of Meadow Hills and Edmonton Heights. A key institutional landmark is the Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical College, situated near the base of Chapman Mountain. The era's transportation infrastructure is well-documented, featuring the Louisville and Nashville railroad line and the Florida Short Route. Cultural and recreational life of the 1960s is evidenced by the Valley View Golf Course and a drive-in theater located along the southern highway corridor. Numerous rural landmarks, including the Antioch Ch and Strong Cem, remain preserved amidst the changing landscape.
