About this map

The Catawba River and its South Fork define the industrial and residential corridors of eastern Gaston County during this era of rapid suburban expansion. Following the Seaboard Coast Line and Southern Ry, a chain of textile-focused settlements including Stanley, Lowell, and McAdenville shows a transition from traditional mill towns to a broader regional layout. The landscape is dotted with community anchors like Belmont Abbey College and Holbrook High Sch, while more specialized sites like the WBTV Radio Tower on Spencer Mountain highlight the area's role in regional communications.
