1975 Map of Pell City
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Pell City serves as the focal point of this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, which uses aerial photography to document the landscape of St. Clair County. The imagery reveals the intricate relationship between the developing urban grid of the city and the vast reach of Logan Martin Lake to the south. This transition from dense woodland and cleared agricultural tracts to the expanding suburban fingers of the community is clearly visible. The photograph, captured in early December, provides an unobstructed view of the region's transportation corridors, including the prominent interstate highway crossing the northern portion of the sheet. For those studying the environmental and infrastructural evolution of Alabama, this map documents the area during a period of significant growth after the impoundment of the Coosa River.
