1968 Map of Raleigh East

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The eastern edges of Raleigh undergo a visible transformation into suburban corridors in this late-1960s survey, where residential developments like Brentwood and Longview Gardens bridge the gap between the urban center and rural outposts. The Seaboard Coast Line Railroad and Norfolk Southern lines define the industrial and transit backbone of the area, cutting through a landscape increasingly marked by institutional growth. Major landmarks include St Augustines College, Wake Memorial Hosp, and the State Correctional Center.
