About this map

The Central of Georgia Railway cuts a prominent diagonal across this landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the industrial and educational expansion of eastern Alabama. Near the rail lines, the State Vocational Technical Institute and Darden High Sch represent the era's focus on regional development. This survey captures a mix of established community hubs like Mt Jefferson and industrial sites such as Beans Mill and several gravel pits, illustrating the transition from rural land use to more structured urban infrastructure.
