1965 Map of Skyland
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Buncombe and Henderson counties meet along a busy corridor of industry and infrastructure in the mid-1960s. The landscape is anchored by the French Broad River, which serves as a backdrop for the sprawling Asheville Steam Plant and its associated ash disposal areas and coal piles. Nearby, the Asheville Municipal Airport marks the regional shift toward modern transit, while the Southern railroad line still traces the valley floor, connecting the settlements of Fletcher and Brickton.
