USGS Topo · Published 1942About this map
Sweetwater serves as the hub of this East Tennessee landscape, where the campus of the Tennessee Military Institute stands prominently north of the town center. The early 1940s topography reveals a well-developed network of small communities and rural institutions, from Christianburg in the south to the hillside settlement at Northpoint. The Southern railroad line parallels the Lee Highway through the valley, anchoring the local economy to the transport corridor between Watson Ridge and Blackoak Ridge.
