2010 Map of Vander

About this map

The Cape Fear River forms a dominant natural boundary for this 2010 survey of the eastern fringes of Fayetteville. The map illustrates a landscape transitioning from the urban core to suburban developments and remaining wetlands. Notable residential clusters such as Highland Acres, Tranquil Acres, and Heritage Heights show the expansion of the city footprint eastward. Historical sites like the Cross Creek Cemetery and infrastructure including the Fayetteville VAH Airport anchor the western edge. To the east, the terrain is defined by watercourses like Locks Creek and Bakers Swamp, which have long influenced the placement of older settlements like Vander and Beard. This survey provides a precise record of Cumberland County's road networks and drainage patterns at the end of the first decade of the 2000s.
