Midway: I-85 N @ MM 89.4
Few places in South Carolina have a history as closely tied to the growth of the Piedmont transport corridor as Midway. This small Cherokee County community lies beside Interstate 85, the major northeast–southwest highway linking the Upstate with Charlotte and Atlanta. Its surroundings are typical of the South Carolina Piedmont: wooded ground, low rolling terrain and roadside businesses clustered along interchanges rather than a compact town centre. Nearby Gaffney is associated with the Peachoid, a peach-shaped water tower that has become a regional roadside landmark, reflecting the importance of peach growing in this part of the state. Midway’s identity is practical and connected, where through traffic, local services and the rural fringe meet.

The landscape around Midway is rolling Piedmont terrain, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. This small unincorporated community lies in Cherokee County in northern South Carolina, amid wooded ridges, fields and road-linked rural settlements. Cherokee County was created in 1897 and takes its name from the Cherokee people, whose historic homeland extended across parts of the southeastern United States. Midway belongs to the Carolina Piedmont rather than South Carolina’s Atlantic lowlands, with the Blue Ridge farther northwest.

Among the regions of the United States, South Carolina stands out for its sweep from the Atlantic coast and tidal Lowcountry to the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Its shoreline combines barrier islands, salt marshes and estuaries, with Charleston long established as one of the country’s important Atlantic port cities. Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor, is where the American Civil War began in 1861. Farther inland, Congaree National Park protects a notable expanse of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest, while Columbia serves as the state capital.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
