USGS Topo · Published 1993About this map
Bethalto and the surrounding river bottoms define this landscape in the mid-20th century, showing a transition from the industrial corridors of East Alton to the rural townships of Foster and Moro. The map illustrates the sprawling development of postwar suburbs like Cottage Hills, Rosewood Heights, and Forest Homes as they expanded near the St Louis Regional Airport. Significant institutional landmarks are present, including the Alton Mental Health Center and the Cloverleaf Golf Course.
