1975 Map of Elmira SE

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Fern Ridge Reservoir dominates this orthophotoquad, its wide waters and complex shoreline defining the eastern portion of the map. This 1975 aerial perspective reveals the developing landscape of Lane County, where the growing settlement of Veneta sits at a crossroads of residential expansion and timber-rich terrain. To the north, the community of Elmira is visible amidst a mosaic of cleared fields and dense woodlands, illustrating the mid-seventies transition from traditional rural agriculture to more suburbanized patterns. The map captures distinct geographical markers within the reservoir itself, such as Gibson Island, and shows the organized layout of smaller residential pockets like Maywood. Because this is an orthophotograph, researchers can observe the actual density of forest cover and the precise footprint of individual structures during this era of Oregon's development.
