1948 Map of Columbia
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Columbia serves as a thriving educational and institutional hub in the late 1940s, anchored by the expansive grounds of the University of Missouri and prominent campuses for Christian College and Stephens College. The urban core is surrounded by a network of local schools including Ridgeway Sch, Benton Sch, and Douglas Sch, while the outlying landscape is dotted with rural centers like Keene Sch and Sugar Grove Ch. The presence of the Wabash RR and the Municipal Airport reflects a city well-integrated into mid-century transportation networks.
