1914 Map of Muscle Shoals
USGS Topo · Published 1914About this map
The Tennessee River dominates this landscape, showing the complex navigation system required to traverse the Big Muscle Shoals before the river was dammed. The Muscle Shoals Canal and Lock No 6 illustrate the industrial efforts to bypass these dangerous rapids, which are dotted with landforms like Polk Stalk I and Jacksons Island. To the north, the industrial hubs of Florence and Sheffield are shown during a period of significant growth, connected by the Southern railroad and the Cloverdale Road.
