About this map

Stone Mountain dominates the eastern portion of this DeKalb County landscape, depicted here at a moment of significant suburban expansion in the early 1990s. The massive granite dome is surrounded by the Stone Mountain Memorial State Park, featuring Stone Mountain Lake and Venable Lake. To the west, the map reveals a dense network of residential streets and community infrastructure connecting established settlements like Tucker, Clarkston, and Pine Lake.

Institutional footprints are prominent, including the Atlanta Sch for the Deaf and DeKalb College, alongside numerous local landmarks such as Rehoboth Ch and the Voc-Tech Sch. The drainage patterns of Snapfinger Creek and Barbashela Creek contrast with the heavy industrial and commercial development lining the Georgia railroad corridor, illustrating the area's evolution from a granite-quarrying center to a primary suburban hub of the Atlanta metropolitan area.
