1965 Map of Southeast Memphis

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The expanding urban footprint of Memphis dominates this mid-1960s survey, updated in the early 1980s to show the rapid sprawl of residential and industrial developments. Major infrastructure hubs like the Memphis International Airport and the sprawling Tennessee Yards rail facility anchor the southern half of the sheet, while the Mid-South Fairgrounds and Memphis State University define the established northern neighborhoods. The map captures a transitional era as smaller outlying settlements like Oakville and Capleville were being absorbed into the metropolitan reach.
