1964 Map of Crete North

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Big Blue River meanders through the heart of the eastern Nebraska plains, where the West Fork Big Blue River joins it just north of the growing community of Crete. This mid-century survey captures the region during a period of agricultural stability and local development, showing the concentrated street grid of the town alongside local landmarks like Tuxedo Park and Riverside Cem. Beyond the city limits, the landscape is defined by its educational and spiritual centers, such as St James Sch and Valley View Sch. The transportation network is anchored by the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad, which services the small siding of Berks. An Old Railroad Grade further north hints at earlier transit routes that once connected these rolling uplands. This sheet provides a clear view of the intersection between three counties—Seward, Saline, and Lancaster—marked by several creek systems including Cheese Creek and Walnut Creek.
