1919 Map of Astoria
USGS Topo · Published 1928About this map
Astoria sits at the strategic confluence of the Columbia River and Youngs Bay, serving as a critical maritime and rail hub during this post-war period. The landscape is defined by its military and industrial infrastructure, from the coastal defenses at Fort Stevens to the S P & S Ry tracks that connect the shoreline settlements. South of the main port, the Lewis and Clark River and Youngs River snake through tidal flats and timbered ridges, while smaller communities like Warrenton and Hammond manage the river traffic. Along the Pacific Ocean coastline, the survey captures the long stretch of Delaura Beach and the shifting sands of Clatsop Spit, providing a clear record of the region's topography before mid-century development altered the estuary's natural and man-made features.
