1951 Map of Columbia Bottom
USGS Topo · Published 1952About this map
The confluence area of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers is defined by a dense network of levees and industrial landmarks in the early 1950s. Portage Des Sioux and Columbia Bottom occupy the lowlands between the channels, where infrastructure like the Chain of Rocks Bridge and Lewis Bridge link the Missouri and Illinois shores. On the Missouri side, the landscape is shaped by institutional presence, including the City of St Louis Bellefontaine Farm, the St Louis State Training School, and the Villa Gesu Convent.
