1956 Map of Council Bluffs North

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Council Bluffs and the surrounding Loess Hills bluffs are captured during a period of significant urban expansion following the mid-century. While the core of the city is well-established around landmarks like Big Lake Park and St Francis Ch, purple-tinted photorevisions from 1969 show new residential growth pushing north and east toward Garner. The landscape is heavily defined by a dense concentration of neighborhood schools, including Roosevelt Sch, Harrison Sch, and Iowana Sch, reflecting the postwar population boom in Pottawattamie County.
