1955 Map of Whites Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Dividing Ridge and Paradise Ridge form the spine of this mid-century landscape north of Nashville, where the winding headwaters of Sycamore Creek and Whites Creek carve a series of deep hollows. The settlement pattern is defined by upland ridges and narrow valleys, with rural hubs like Joelton and Union Hill anchored by local institutions such as Union Hill Ch and Walkers Ch. The 1955 survey captures the area at a point of technological transition, evidenced by the prominent Television Tower (WLAC) and Radio Towers (WLAC) standing near the modern Dixie Highway.
