The growing suburban corridor between Charlotte and Mint Hill is documented in this 2016 survey, where residential development and large-scale memorial sites sit alongside remaining pockets of the Piedmont landscape. The map highlights numerous legacy sites for genealogists, including Saint Pauls Church Cem, Robinson Church Cem, and the Bethel AME Zion Church Cem. Aviation history is present at the Wilgrove Air Park, situated north of the Mint Hill center. The drainage patterns of the region are defined by McAlpine Cr, Irvins Cr, and Goose Cr, which flow through the developing neighborhoods of Idlewild, Wilgrove, and Hickory Grove. At the southern edge, the map captures the northern limits of Matthews and the community of Hoods, illustrating the expansion of the metropolitan footprint toward the Union County line.
