About this map

The Wolf River winds through this 1965 survey of northeastern Shelby County, illustrating the post-war urban expansion beyond the traditional limits of Memphis. The map captures a mix of established residential neighborhoods and emerging developments like Raleigh and Egypt, where older landmarks such as Raleigh Cem sit near modern features like Frayser Plaza Shopping Center. Notable educational and cultural institutions anchor the landscape, including Southwestern at Memphis College, Christian Brothers College, and the Brooks Memorial Art Gallery within Overton Park.
