1963 Map of Tanner

About this map

Swan Creek and Piney Creek meander through the Tennessee Valley landscape of Limestone County, defining a region where long-established agriculture meets mid-century infrastructure. The southern edge of the map is dominated by the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge and the Harris-Sweetwater Dewatering Area, revealing the complex water management systems surrounding the Tennessee River and Wheeler Lake. These natural areas contrast with the industrial and transportation corridor established by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and the Southern Railway, which intersect at Decatur Junction.
