1940 Map of Myrtle Beach
USGS Topo · Published 1940About this map
Myrtle Beach is a developing coastal hub on this pre-war survey, defined by its relationship to the Atlantic and the newly established Intracoastal Waterway. The landscape is a mix of maritime forests and wetlands, where the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and the historic Kings Highway provide the primary transit corridors. Local life centers on small communities and educational sites like Socastee and the Big Swamp Sch, while the coastline already shows signs of recreational growth at Myrtle Beach State Park and the Ocean Forest Club.
