The map
Winston-Salem is two towns joined in 1913: Salem, founded in the eighteenth century by Moravian settlers, and Winston, which grew around tobacco and textiles. On a map the join is still visible. The downtown sits on a tight grid of blocks with a compact skyline, while just to the south the older Salem streets form a small, careful plan around a central square.
The R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company made the city famous, and its Art Deco headquarters, the Reynolds Building, served as a model for the Empire State Building. Old Salem is preserved as a living history district, and Wake Forest University occupies a wooded campus on the northwest side of the city.
A Winston-Salem map poster shows a Piedmont city of rolling ground, where the grid of the core gives way to curving suburban streets, creeks and tree-lined parks. A downtown highway cuts across the centre in a sweeping line, and the pattern of old mill and factory districts can still be traced in the larger blocks near the rail lines.

The centre of Winston sits on a compact grid of blocks, with former tobacco warehouses and factory sites showing as larger parcels near the railway.
To the northwest the university's grounds appear as an open, green area with looping roads and quads, surrounded by curving residential streets.

Why Winston-Salem
Winston-Salem is a city people come to for university, medicine or family, and often stay. Its map carries a lot of personal history, from a graduation at Wake Forest to a first house in a quiet neighbourhood, which makes it a lasting gift.
