1963 Map of Paradise

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Industrial transformation dominates this landscape along the Green River in the early 1960s. The village of Paradise sits prominently near the southern bend of the river, overshadowed by the massive infrastructure of the TVA Powerplant, complete with its complex of tailings ponds, conveyors, and stacks. This era marks a peak in the region's extraction economy, evidenced by the extensive strip mine operations and smaller mines that weave through the terrain between Echols and Rockport.
