west knoxville

In the 1950s, West Hills was sparsely populated, with a waiting list for telephone service. Fields lay between the homes and Kingston Pike, because there was not yet an interstate between them.

Until West Town Mall came along in the early 1970s, the property there contained woods and a fire station.

Walker Springs Road was still considered country; Farragut, even more so.
Now West Knoxville has sprawled beyond Cedar Bluff. Some would say the boundaries reach Concord and Farragut.
