1968 Map of Raleigh West

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

North Carolina State University and the neighboring Meredith College anchor the institutional heart of this mid-century landscape. The map captures the westward expansion of Raleigh toward Cary, a period defined by the modernization of transportation and higher education. Suburban development is visible in the purple-shaded extensions near Tysonville and Method, while large open tracts are preserved in the William B Umstead State Park and the Carl Alwin Schenck Memorial Forest.
