1960 Map of Angola
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The shoreline of Lake Erie defines the character of the town of Evans in this 1960 revision, where lakefront recreation and rail commerce converge. The village of Angola serves as the inland anchor, situated at a major junction of the New York Chicago and St Louis and the New York Central and St Louis Pennsylvania railroads. Along the coast, a string of camps and leisure sites such as Camp Pioneer, St Vincent de Paul Camp, and the Buffalo Fresh Air Mission illustrate the area's mid-century importance as a summer destination. To the north, Sturgeon Point and St Columbans Retreat House overlook the water, while inland features like the Drive-in Theater and Lake Shore Central High Sch reflect the growth of a post-war community balancing its agricultural roots with suburban development.
