1953 Map of Spartanburg

About this map

The Catawba River and Broad River drainage basins define the Piedmont landscape of the Carolinas in this mid-century survey. Extending from the industrial hub of Spartanburg southeast to the state capital of Columbia, the sheet captures the regional transition from rolling foothills to the Carolina Sandhills. The rail-dominated infrastructure is clearly visible through the networks of the Southern Railway and the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad, which connect manufacturing centers like Rock Hill and Chester with smaller agricultural junctions.
