2014 Map of Stone Mountain

About this map

Stone Mountain dominates the eastern landscape of this DeKalb County survey, surrounded by a dense network of suburban developments and extensive water features. The map details the transition from the established community of Tucker to the northeast toward Lilburn, with the CSX Transportation line providing a structural spine through the region. This era shows a landscape defined by significant residential expansion, evident in named subdivisions like Smoke Rise, Sterling Acres, and Idlewood Acres. Water management is prominent, with the Stone Mountain Park Lake-North and Stone Mountain Park Lake-South basins flanking the granite monolith. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved amidst the growth, including Stone Mill Cem and Floral Hills Memorial Garden Cem, alongside educational landmarks like Dekalb College. The intricate drainage of Snapfinger Creek and South Fork Peachtree Creek illustrates the complex topography of the Piedmont plateau during this period of high-density development.
