About this map

Memphis sprawls eastward during the mid-1960s, showing the rapid conversion of rural Shelby County into a modern urban grid. Education and healthcare institutions serve as major anchors, from Memphis State University and Siena College to the expansive Kennedy VA Hospital. The industrial and logistics footprint is equally significant, characterized by the Defense Depot Memphis and the massive rail infrastructure of Tennessee Yards and Forrest Yards.
