2013 Map of Murfreesboro

About this map

Stones River National Battlefield and the Military Park Brannons Redoubt anchor the northern reaches of this landscape, preserving the geography of one of the Civil War's most significant conflicts. The terrain is defined by the convergence of the W Fork Stones River and Middle Fork Stones River, with residential expansion pressing outward from Murfreesboro into established communities like Barfield and Crescent. Suburban developments such as Green Meadows, Southern Aire, and River Shores are woven through the karst topography of the Central Basin. Aviation history is represented by both the Murfreesboro Municipal Airport and the smaller Mc Donald Airport. Near the southern edge, the relief rises toward Barfield Knobs and Marshall Knobs, marking a transition from the river plains to more elevated ground. The map also captures local hydrological features like Sand Spring and Sterling Farmer Lake, illustrating the complex water network of Rutherford County.
