About this map

Lumberton serves as the focal point for this orthophotoquad, which utilizes imagery from the Department of Natural and Economic Resources to reveal the mid-1970s landscape of Robeson County. The aerial perspective captures a transitional moment for the region, where the organized grid of the city meets an extensive network of drainage basins and agricultural plots. Dense wooded corridors follow the natural winding of local watercourses, contrasting sharply with the geometric clearing of fields and the expansion of residential developments like East Side Park. In the southwestern corner, the outskirts of Fairmont are visible, connected to the county seat by a developing infrastructure of highways and rural roads. This photographic record is particularly valuable for documenting the exact footprint of forest cover and land use before subsequent decades of development altered the outskirts of these North Carolina communities.
