2016 Map of New Bern

About this map

New Bern sits at the prominent confluence of the Neuse River and Trent River, serving as a historic hub for maritime and overland transport in coastal North Carolina. This survey details the urban core and its neighboring residential districts like DeGraffenried Park and Craven Terrace, alongside the nearby town of Bridgeton across the Neuse. The landscape south of the city shifts into the dense wetlands of the Croatan National Forest and the Brice Creek Pocoson, where numerous small waterways like Jack Smith Creek and Lawson Creek drain into the primary river systems. Genealogists will find several significant burial grounds documented, including the historic Cedar Grove Cemetery and Greenwood Cemetery. The infrastructure of the mid-2010s is well-defined, showing the Coastal Carolina Regional Airport and the expansive Alfred A Cunningham Bridge connecting the riverside communities.
