1969 Map of Rockwood

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Cumberland Ridge and the Cumberland Escarpment dominate the western landscape, rising sharply above the developed corridor of Rockwood. This industrial and transport hub is defined by the intersection of the Southern RR and the Cincinnati New Orleans and Texas Pacific RR, which facilitated the movement of goods from local operations like the quarry. Beyond the city center, the terrain transitions into agricultural valleys and the sprawling waters of Watts Bar Lake, where Thief Neck Island sits within the ancient bends of the Tennessee River.
