About this map

The Tar River and Roanoke River systems dominate this mid-1980s portrait of eastern North Carolina, where the agricultural flatlands meet growing urban hubs. Regional centers like Rocky Mount, Wilson, and Greenville show substantial development, while smaller rail towns such as Tarboro, Farmville, and Pinetops maintain their historic footprints along the Seaboard System and Norfolk Southern lines. The map highlights the sprawling campus of East Carolina University and the specialized installations of the Voice of America transmitter site.
