1968 Map of Raleigh West

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

North Carolina State University and the downtown core of Raleigh serve as the focal point of this late 1960s study, which also captures the westward expansion toward Cary. The urban landscape is punctuated by institutional landmarks such as Meredith College, the State Fairgrounds, and Dorothea Dix State Hospital. To the north and west, the map details the wooded expanses of William B Umstead State Park and the Carl Alwin Schenck Memorial Forest, providing a look at the capital's fringes before the significant suburban infill of the late 20th century.
