1957 Map of Nashville East

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Cumberland River carves a dramatic series of loops through this mid-century landscape, defining the boundaries of Neelys Bend and Pennington Bend before winding toward the heart of Nashville. The map documents a period of significant suburban expansion and institutional infrastructure, featuring the sprawling Nashville Municipal Airport (Berry Field) and the Nashville Radio Range Station in the south. These developments sit alongside long-established landmarks like the massive Mount Olivet Cemetery and the National Cemetery.
