1961 Map of Elk River

About this map

The confluence of the Mississippi River and the Elk River serves as the focal point for this 1961 survey, which was updated with photorevisions in 1980. The city of Elk River is positioned strategically along these waterways, showing a landscape transitioning between its industrial foundations and growing residential needs. Key infrastructure such as the Powerplant on the banks of Orono Lake and the Sewage Disposal facility near a Trailer Park reflect the mid-century development of the region.
