The Catawba River corridor dominates this 1970 snapshot of the Alexander and Catawba county line, where the impounded waters of Lake Hickory meet the Oxford Dam to form Lookout Shoals Lake. The landscape reveals a transition from the agricultural uplands near Millersville to the recreational and industrial waterfront. This era shows the development of Taylorsville Beach and Oxford Park alongside essential rural infrastructure like the County Landing Strip and the Powerplant at the dam.
