About this map

Norris Reservoir dominates this 1936 landscape, its backwater reaching deep into the Clinch River valley just as the Tennessee Valley Authority was reshaping the region. The map captures a critical transition for communities like Lone Mountain and Liberty Hill, where the rising waters of the reservoir at the 1020-foot elevation mark redefined local geography. Further north, Tazewell and New Tazewell stand as established hubs, connected to the southern reaches of the quadrangle by the Southern Railway.
