1955 Map of Anoka
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The Mississippi River serves as the central artery for this mid-century survey, dividing the landscape between Anoka and Hennepin counties as the post-war suburbs began their outward expansion. Substantial residential development is evident in Brooklyn Center, Crystal, and Robbinsdale at the southern edge, where dense street grids contrast with the still-open townships of Maple Grove and Brooklyn Park. The confluence of the Rum River and Mississippi at Anoka highlights the area's historic importance as a regional hub, anchored by the State Hospital and local industry.
