1954 Map of New Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

New Lake dominates this coastal North Carolina landscape, where the shifting boundaries of Tyrrell and Hyde counties meet amidst a complex network of man-made waterways. Originally surveyed in 1951, the map reveals an environment defined by reclamation and drainage efforts, visible in the straight lines of the Long Ridge Canal, Dunbar Canal, and the Squyars Canal. These features, along with the Old State Canal, illustrate the long history of attempting to manage the wetlands surrounding the lake.
