1958 Map of Montgomery North

About this map

Montgomery and the surrounding river bends of the Alabama River and Tallapoosa River are captured here in the late 1950s. The landscape is defined by its strategic military and industrial hubs, featuring the sprawling layouts of Maxwell Air Force Base and Gunter Air Force Base on opposite sides of the city. To the north, the winding river creates distinctive landforms like Gun Island and Parker Island, while the Louisville and Nashville railroad facilitates commerce through Prattville Junction.
