1994 Map of Salem

About this map

The Roanoke River valley defines the landscape of this 1990s survey, where the urban expansion of Salem meets the steep rising terrain of Lewis Mountain and Brush Mountain. The city's core is centered around the historic campus of Roanoke College and the Andrew Lewis Jr High Sch, showing a densely developed grid that transitions into industrial sites along the Norfolk and Western RR. To the north, the Appalachian National Scenic Trail traverses the ridges of the Havens State Wildlife Management Area, providing a sharp contrast to the suburban growth in Sunset Village and Beverly Heights. Notable regional infrastructure is well-represented, from the sprawling Veterans Administration Hospital and Sherwood Burial Park to the Lakeside Amusement Park and the varied crossings of the Lynchburg Turnpike.
