1956 Map of Cleveland
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Lake Erie defines the northern horizon of this mid-century landscape, anchoring a dense network of industrial centers and water management systems. From the urban core of Cleveland and its suburban ring including Lakewood and Shaker Heights, the map traces the vital transportation corridors of the Ohio Turnpike and rail lines like the Erie Lackawanna. To the south and east, the industrial strength of Akron, Youngstown, and New Castle is evident, supported by a complex of man-made water bodies such as Mosquito Creek Lake and Berlin Reservoir.
