1980 Map of St. Andrews Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Mobile Bay dominates the northern reaches of this coastal survey, where the waters of the bay meet the northern edge of the Fort Morgan peninsula. The landscape is characterized by its transition from tidal flats and bayside marshes to the sandy reaches of the Gulf of Mexico. Settlement in the late 1970s was concentrated in small coastal pockets, including Weeks and Edith, which appear as discrete named locations along the peninsula's spine. The map reflects a moment in time when this portion of the Alabama coast remained relatively sparsely developed, with land use patterns primarily dictated by the immediate proximity to both the sheltered waters of the bay and the open Gulf.
