1954 Map of Bellingham North

About this map

Bellingham is captured during a significant period of suburban expansion and urban development, showing the city's growth north toward King Mtn and east along the shores of Lake Whatcom. The landscape transitions from the dense city grid near Bellingham Bay to a rural agricultural pattern defined by the Guide Meridian. Historical civic landmarks such as the Court House, City Hall, and St Josephs Hosp anchor the urban core, while outlying communities like Laurel and Van Wyck reflect the region's dairy and farming roots. The mapping of Larson Mill and various Gravel Pits illustrates the industrial activities supporting the local economy. Waterways including Squalicum Creek and Whatcom Creek remain central to the geography, winding through residential blocks and past schools like the Meridian HS and Roosevelt Sch.
