2011 Map of Northwest Memphis

About this map

Memphis sits at a critical bend of the Mississippi River, where modern logistics and deep historical roots intersect. This early 21st-century survey documents the urban fabric of the city and its industrial riverfront, including the Cotton Row Historic District and the Beale Street National Historic Preservation District. The map highlights a complex network of transportation and housing, from the residential blocks of Dixie Homes and Annesdale Park to the multiple spans crossing into Arkansas, such as the Hernando-DeSoto Bridge and Harahan Bridge. North of the downtown core, the landscape transitions into the river's active floodplain, marked by Mud Island and the Wolf River Lagoon. The survey also preserves the locations of numerous aviation facilities, including the General Dewitt Spain Airport and specialized medical helipads like the Baptist Hospital Airport.
