1928 Map of Elmhurst
USGS Topo · Published 1928About this map
Salt Creek meanders through the western half of this 1920s landscape, providing a natural contrast to the dense grid of emerging rail-oriented suburbs. This survey reveals a region in transition as agricultural boundaries give way to planned residential blocks and industrial sites. In Addison, specialized institutions such as the Lutheran Orphanage and the Industrial Training School occupy prominent parcels, while Elmhurst is established as a central hub featuring Elmhurst College and a large Quarry near the Chicago Great Western tracks.
