About this map

The Neuse River and its major tributaries, including Crabtree Creek and Walnut Cr, anchor the landscape of Eastern Wake County as it appeared in the late 2010s. This survey illustrates the dense development of eastern Raleigh, radiating out from the historic Oakwood Cem along major thoroughfares like Capital Blvd and New Bern Ave. The map documents the growth connecting the capital city to the town of Knightdale and the smaller community of Millbrook.

Transitioning from the urban core to more suburban and rural fringe areas, the map identifies local landmarks such as Pet Crossroads and Wilders Grove. Water management and recreation are evident through features like Milburnie Lake, Lake Anne, and Wendell Lake, alongside the crossings at Poole Bridge. The intricate network of local roads and named residential streets shows the modern expansion across former agricultural land between the established hubs of New Hope and Milburnie.
