1952 Map of Centerville
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake dominate the geography of this mid-century Minnesota landscape, where an intricate network of waterways including Rice Creek and Hardwood Creek weave through the marshy terrain of Anoka and Washington Counties. The settlement of Centerville sits at a critical junction of these lakes, reflecting a community deeply tied to its aquatic surroundings. To the west, the Carlos Avery Game Refuge and Public Hunting Grounds preserves a significant portion of the natural wetlands, while the presence of a Seaplane Base on Rice Lake highlights the era's specialized local transportation. Historical interest is further grounded by the Rice Lake Ch and Twitchel Cem, which alongside the Northern Pacific railroad corridor near Hugo, illustrate the established social and industrial infrastructure of the early 1950s.
