1973 Map of Waynesboro West

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The industrial and suburban development of the western edge of Waynesboro is extensively documented in this mid-1970s revision. The city expands toward the foothills of the George Washington National Forest, where the Blue Ridge Parkway and Shenandoah Valley Overlook provide a clear vantage of the valley floor. Transportation corridors dominate the landscape, with the Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and Western railroads bisecting the region, passing through growing communities like Fishersville and Ladd. The map shows a heavy concentration of educational and civic institutions, from the Woodrow Wilson Educational Center to local landmarks like Tinkling Spring Ch and the Waynesboro Airport. The inclusion of various industrial sites, such as the Sewage Disposal and an Industrial Waste Pond along the South River, reflects the post-war economic character of the Augusta County borderlands.
