1963 Map of Chicago Loop

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Rosehill Cemetery and Graceland Cemetery anchor the north side of the city in this early 1960s survey, illustrating a dense urban landscape defined by its relation to the Lake Michigan shoreline. The map documents the intricate water network of the North Branch Chicago River and the North Branch Canal, which feed into the industrial Turning Basin. This era is marked by the prominence of the Edens Expressway and Kennedy Expressway cutting through established neighborhoods like Logan Square and Avondale.
