About this map

Silver Run Cemetery sits as a quiet focal point in a landscape undergoing rapid suburban transformation south of Charlotte. This 2011 survey illustrates the dense residential expansion of Mecklenburg County, characterized by numerous planned communities such as Providence Plantation, Quail Hollow, and Olde Providence. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage branches and man-made impoundments, including Carmel Lake and Lake Providence, which serve as central features for the surrounding neighborhoods.

The town of Weddington and the community of Colonial Village anchor the southern portion of the sheet, where winding residential roads like Sharon Rd W and Green Rea Rd replace former rural tracks. The proliferation of private dams, such as Mitchell Dam Number Six and the Reid Lake Number One Dam, reflects a modern era of water management tailored for recreational use and aesthetic landscaping within these established residential enclaves.
