About this map

The James River and Rivanna River anchor this mid-1940s landscape, where traditional plantation estates and riverfront commerce meet the expanding infrastructure of central Virginia. Scottsville serves as a primary hub on the James, with the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad tracking the river’s north bank past Nicholas Siding. To the north, the historic Ash Lawn estate and Blenheim reflect the region's deep ties to colonial-era figures, while the presence of the University Airport and the Fire Tower on Carter Mountain signal the modernization of the era.
