About this map

Mobile dominates this mid-century coastal survey, situated where the Mobile River meets Mobile Bay. The city's industrial and maritime foundations are visible through the extensive rail networks of the Gulf Mobile and Ohio RR, Louisville and Nashville RR, and Southern Ry serving the docks and turning basins. In the city's heart, civic and cultural landmarks like Barton Academy, Ladd Stadium, and the expansive Magnolia Cemetery stand near established neighborhoods like Toulminville and Crichton.
