About this map

Memphis expands across the landscape in the mid-1960s, showing a dense grid of residential growth and academic institutions. Educational hubs like Southwestern at Memphis College, Christian Brothers College, and Memphis Baptist College anchor the city's intellectual life, while Overton Park and Galloway Park preserve green space amidst the urban spread. The Wolf River and Cypress Creek wind through the terrain, separated by major transit corridors including the Illinois Central and Louisville and Nashville railroads.
