About this map

The Tombigbee River corridor in Northeast Mississippi is defined here by the intersection of traditional agriculture and significant industrial engineering. The Gulf and Mississippi railroad line cuts through the western landscape, connecting the small settlements of Strong and Whites. This map documents a transformative moment for the river valley, showing the Columbus Lake portion of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. This massive public works project altered the local hydrology, as seen in the sprawling Tombigbee River channel and adjacent disposal areas.
