1957 Map of Phenix City
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The Chattahoochee River serves as the central artery of this mid-century landscape, marking the boundary between Alabama and Georgia. At the heart of the region, the industrial and military hubs of Phenix City and Columbus anchor the riverbanks, sitting just north of the expansive Fort Benning Military Reservation. To the west, the Tallapoosa River flows through a series of smaller settlements including Alexander City and Tallassee, while the higher elevations of Pine Mountain and Oak Mountain rise to the northeast near Franklin D Roosevelt State Park. This survey captures the post-war expansion of textile towns like Lanett, Langdale, and Riverview along the river, alongside the academic and commercial growth of Auburn and Opelika.
