1953 Map of Edmonds East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Snohomish Co and King Co line bisects this landscape of rapid postwar development, where the sprawling residential tracts of Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood are shown expanding toward the shores of Puget Sound. The transition from rural to suburban is evident in the survival of Alderwood Manor and Perrinville alongside newer infrastructure like the Pacific Highway. The shoreline is defined by the Great Northern RR tracks winding through Browns Bay and Meadowdale, while the interior is dotted with community hubs like the Nile Temple Country Club and Holyrood Cemetery. This 1953 survey, updated with 1981 revisions, documents the filling in of the hills between Lake Washington and the Sound, preserving the location of dozens of local landmarks from the Kenmore Drive-in Theater to early educational sites like Ronald Schools and Esperance Sch.
