1967 Map of Bloomington

About this map

The Minnesota River valley serves as the defining geographic feature of this mid-century portrait, separating the burgeoning suburbs of Bloomington and Richfield from the growing communities of Burnsville and Savage to the south. The era’s expansion is visible in the dense network of new schools and parks, such as Kennedy High Sch and Humboldt Heights Sch, alongside major retail hubs like the Southtown Shopping Center. Local industrial and social landmarks are well-represented, from the riverfront operations at Port Cargill to the sprawling Minnesota Masonic Home grounds near the Bloomington Ferry site.
