1968 Map of Nashville East

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Cumberland River carves a dramatic path through this 1968 study, framing the deep meanders of Neelys Bend and Pennington Bend before the waters reach Cheatham Lake. This eastern portion of the Nashville metropolitan area reveals a landscape transitioning from the mid-century suburban growth of Inglewood, Donelson, and Maplewood to the more open reaches near the Nashville Metropolitan Airport. A significant concentration of funerary and institutional landmarks anchors the geography, including the expansive National Cemetery, Spring Hill Cemetery, and Mount Olivet Cemetery, alongside the State School for the Blind.
