About this map

The Neuse River carves a path through the eastern reaches of this Raleigh landscape, serving as a primary geographic anchor for a series of suburban developments and natural features. Established residential areas like Millbrook and New Hope represent the continuing growth of the state capital, while smaller enclaves such as Will-O-Dean Acres and Hearthstone provide distinct neighborhood identities. The map reflects a complex network of tributaries, including Crabtree Cr and Walnut Cr, which drain into the main river channel.

Water management and recreation are evident in the presence of Milburnie Lake and Myrick Pond, along with several smaller named ponds like Angus Barn Pond and Baker Pond. These water bodies are interspersed among named housing developments such as Brentwood Village and Starmount, illustrating the post-war and late-20th-century expansion of the city into the surrounding Piedmont terrain. The transportation infrastructure is dominated by the sweep of Highway 540 and Route 401, which facilitate movement through these densely labeled suburban and wooded zones.
