About this map

The Missouri River defines the landscape of this 1940s survey, separating St Charles from the thriving agricultural and industrial bottoms of St Louis Co. Large river features like Bonhomme Island and Catfish Island dominate the channel, while the southern bank is anchored by the St Louis City Water Works and the St Louis County Water Works at Howard Bend. These facilities represent critical infrastructure for the growing metropolitan region during the post-war era.
