About this map

The Cumberland River carves a deep horseshoe bend around Bordeaux, anchoring this detailed 1960s study of Tennessee's capital. The map captures a period of intense urban and institutional development, evidenced by the sprawling campus footprints of Vanderbilt University, Fisk University, and Meharry Medical College. The downtown core is defined by the State Capitol and Municipal Auditorium, while the surrounding neighborhoods reflect a landscape of historic civic institutions including St Marys Orphanage and the American Theological Seminary.
