The Cedar River and a dense network of competing rail lines define the development of northern Cedar Rapids during the late 1960s. This period captures the suburban expansion north into Hiawatha and Robins, where new residential streets meet established infrastructure like the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific and the Illinois Central railroads. The map records a specific moment of mid-century commercial culture, featuring the Lindale Plaza Shopping Center and a Drive-in Theater along the growing corridor of Blairs Ferry Road.
