2011 Map of Norcross

About this map

The Chattahoochee River forms a natural northwest border for this suburbanizing corridor, where traditional landmarks like Scotts Mill and Hopkins Mill meet the rapid growth of the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by its transition from older river crossings like Jones Bridge Landing to sprawling corporate and residential hubs, including Technology Park Atlanta and Peachtree Corners. Genealogy and local history are preserved in numerous family burial grounds, such as the Goodwin Cemetery and Buchannen-King Cemetery, which remain tucked among modern developments like Sheffield Forest and Pleasant Acres. Extensive infrastructure is evident through the path of Peachtree Industrial Blvd and the Norcross Quarry, highlighting the area's role as a major industrial and logistics center. Water features also mark the terrain, from the recreation-focused Berkeley Lake to several smaller reservoirs including Freeman Lake and Cardinal Lake.
