1975 Map of Montgomery South

About this map

Montgomery expands southward in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, where dense urban development meets the winding path of Catoma Creek. The imagery captures a distinct transition from the grid-like residential and industrial sprawl of the city to the more open, pastoral lands of southern Montgomery County. Along the western edge, the settlement of Hope Hull sits positioned near major transit corridors, reflecting the area's growth patterns at the time. To the east, the neighborhood of Lynndale represents the suburban frontier of the era. This specialized survey provides a clear visual record of land use before further modernization altered the rural-urban fringe, making it a valuable resource for tracing property boundaries and the evolution of the Alabama capital's southern outskirts.
