1951 Map of Columbia Bottom
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The confluence region of the Mississippi River and Missouri River forms a complex landscape of islands and alluvial bottoms north of St Louis. This 1951 survey, updated with 1968 aerial data, reveals the suburban expansion into Bellefontaine Neighbors and Spanish Lake, where residential blocks are tinted in purple. Despite this growth, the northern reach remains defined by the vast Columbia Bottom and agricultural tracts in Portage des Sioux.
