About this map

Winston-Salem and its eastern residential and industrial expansion are depicted here, centering on the city's academic core and critical infrastructure. The map highlights prominent educational institutions including Salem College, Winston-Salem State University, and the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, clustered near the downtown area. Moving outward, the landscape transitions from established neighborhoods like Columbia Heights and East Winston to the industrial character of the Piedmont Quarry and the strategic Smith Reynolds Airport.

The eastern periphery is defined by the significant recreational and geographic feature of Salem Lake, fed by Salem Cr. The map also captures several smaller communities and church-centered settlements such as Guthrie, Walkertown, and Wallburg near the Forsyth Co Davidson Co line. Local family and community history is anchored by numerous burial grounds, including Evergreen Cem and Oaklawn Memorial Gardens, alongside the Norfolk Southern rail lines that continue to shape the regional transportation network.
