Tabor City and its surrounding agricultural landscape dominate this early 1960s study of the North Carolina and South Carolina state line. The area's dependence on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad is evident as the tracks connect the settlements of Clarendon and Tabor City through a terrain defined by extensive wetlands and elliptical bays. Notable landmarks like the WTAB Radio Tower and a Landing Strip sit near the edge of town, while the rural countryside is dotted with family-named burial grounds including Hinson Cem and McPherson Cem. The drainage patterns of Grissett Swamp and Big Swamp dictate the placement of roads such as Fair Bluff Road and Nellie Ford Rd, highlighting how the low-lying coastal plain topography shaped local transit and development.
