1987 Map of Sylacauga East
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
The industrial and rural landscape east of Sylacauga is defined by the transition from city outskirts to the densely forested ridges of the Talladega National Forest. In the late 1980s, the area's economy is clearly tied to its geology and transportation infrastructure, with the CSX and Southern railroads skirting the foothills and serving local industry. A prominent Rock Quarry (Abandoned) located near Oldfield reflects the region's history of mineral extraction, while the Water Filtration Plant at Lake Howard underscores the importance of the local watershed.
