1949 Map of Duwamish Head

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Puget Sound serves as the central artery for this late 1940s landscape, connecting the growing residential districts of West Seattle to the industrial and naval hubs across the water. The map documents a maritime-dependent era before modern bridge expansions, where a complex network of ferry lines like the Seattle-Winslow Ferry and the Fauntleroy-Vashon Ferry bridged the gaps between Bainbridge Island, Vashon Island, and the mainland.
