1954 Map of Northwest Atlanta

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Chattahoochee River carves through the northwestern corridor of Atlanta, serving as both a natural boundary and a center for recreational sites like the Chattahoochee River National Recreational Area (Palisades Unit). The landscape reflects a mid-century urban expansion, where established neighborhoods like Buckhead and Riverside sit alongside developing districts. Large institutional campuses and public spaces, such as the Georgia Institute of Technology and Atlanta Memorial Park, highlight the city's civic growth during this era.
