1953 Map of Eagle Gorge

About this map

The Northern Pacific Railroad winds along the banks of the Green River in this 1950s study of King County industrial and water infrastructure. This map captures a landscape defined by the crucial Tacoma Water Supply Intake, where the Purification Plant and various gaging stations manage the flow from the high-elevation Watershed Boundary. The heavy presence of water management features, including a Pipe Line and the Lemolo Cable Car Crossing, illustrates the transition from raw mountain terrain to a critical urban resource.
