1966 Map of Cordova

About this map

Lake Volney and the surrounding wetlands of Le Sueur Park define this landscape of the upper Midwest in the mid-1960s. The region is marked by a dense network of conservation areas, including the Factor State Wildlife Management Area and the Shanghai Lake State Wildlife Management Area, indicating a mid-century shift toward managed natural resources. At the center lies the small settlement of Cordova, where the Gorman Lake Spillway and Gorman Cem sit near the shore.
