About this map

The Martin Luther King Jr National Historic Site and the nearby Martin Luther King Junior and Coretta Scott King Grave anchor the southwestern corner of this survey, marking a landscape of profound historical significance. The map transitions from the dense urban neighborhoods of Atlanta and Decatur into established suburbs like Brookhaven, Chamblee, and Tucker.

Academic and civic institutions are prominent throughout the area, including Emory University, Agnes Scott College, and the DeKalb County Courthouse. The hydrology of the region is defined by the winding paths of the North Fork Peachtree Creek and South Fork Peachtree Creek, which carve through residential districts such as Druid Hills and Oak Grove. Smaller local markers, from the Scottdale Mills Cem to the Washington Memorial Gardens, offer points of interest for those tracing family history and community development in DeKalb County.
