1951 Map of Washington

About this map

Washington serves as a hub of river commerce and rail transportation at the confluence of the Tar River and Pamlico River. The city’s development is framed by its proximity to the water, with Washington Park and Washington Heights expanding the residential footprint while the Norfolk Southern railway links the town to outlying points like Marsden Station and Porter Junction. Industry and recreation are evidenced by the aviation facilities at Warren Field and the local entertainment at Pamlico Race Track.
