1966 Map of Tallassee

About this map

Chilhowee Lake and the developing Tellico Lake dominate this mid-1960s landscape along the border of Blount and Monroe Counties. The map captures a critical period of transition for the Little Tennessee River valley, showing the area as the Chilhowee Dam had already transformed the eastern reach, while downstream, land was being prepared for controlled inundation to the 813-foot level. This hydro-electric and navigational development reshaped the historic river corridor, which was once defined by features like Chilhowee Shoals and islands such as Harrison Island and Kirkland Island.
