1993 Map of Southwest Durham

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Duke University and North Carolina Central University anchor the academic landscape of this region during a period of significant suburban expansion south of the Durham city center. The transition from urban density to rural terrain is visible as one moves toward Keene and Blands, where the topography begins to meet the shores of B Everett Jordan Lake. The map details a dense network of educational institutions, from historic local sites like the Lyon Park Sch to the expanding campus of Durham College, reflecting the area's mid-century growth as a regional hub for education and research near the Triangle Parkway.
