1946 Map of Eugene
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The Willamette River valley serves as the central artery for this 1946 culture revision, where the river braids around extensive landforms like Goodpasture Island and Marshall Island. The urban centers of Eugene and Springfield are shown in significant detail, including local landmarks like the Country Club Golf Course and early broadcasting sites for Radio Sta KUGN and Radio Sta KORE. This era was defined by a transition in transportation, as the Oregon Electric Railroad and the Southern Pacific Railroad shared the landscape with the burgeoning Mahlon Sweet Airport. Local life is anchored by a dense network of rural schoolhouses and cemeteries, including the Colin Kelly Sch and the I O O F Cemetery, while smaller settlements such as Stumptown and Junction City mark the primary rail and road corridors through the valley.
