1954 Map of Centralia

About this map

The Chehalis River and Skookumchuck River define the industrial and agricultural heart of Lewis County in the mid-1950s. This survey records the heavy concentration of rail infrastructure serving Centralia and Chehalis, where the Northern Pacific RR, Great Northern Ry, and Union Pacific RR converge. Beyond the urban centers, the landscape transitions into a series of distinct upland prairies, including Newaukum Prairie, Napavine Prairie, and Jackson Prairie, the latter home to the Jackson Prairie Courthouse.
