1973 Map of Auburn

About this map

The county seat of Auburn dominates this early 1970s landscape, serving as a vital regional hub where the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and Penn Central Railroad intersect at Auburn Junction. The city's civic infrastructure is well-defined, featuring the central Courthouse, De Kalb Memorial Hospital, and Harrison Sch. Beyond the urban grid, the map documents a transition into the surrounding townships of Union and Jackson, where the land is etched by an extensive drainage network including the Diehl Ditch and North Branch Hursey Ditch. Local history is preserved in sites like Roselawn Cem and the rural Meese Ch, while the Auburn-DeKalb Airport and several Gravel Pits reflect the mid-century industrial and transportation development of DeKalb County.
