1956 Map of Billings East

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Yellowstone River and the steep escarpment of the Rimrocks dominate this mid-century view of the area surrounding Billings. The map documents a period of significant industrial and infrastructural development, visible in the presence of an Oil Refinery, the Burlington Northern railroad lines, and the extensive network of irrigation ditches such as those crossing the Billings Bench. This landscape is a hybrid of working industrial zones and established community landmarks, from the Yellowstone Fairgrounds near the river to the residential growth reflected in numerous local schools like Pioneer Sch and Hawthorn Sch.
