About this map

Everett and its industrial waterfront along Port Gardner anchor this mid-century survey, showing the city's growth alongside a complex network of waterways and railroads. The Snohomish River dominates the central landscape, winding through a delta system of channels like Ebey Slough and Steamboat Slough. Transportation infrastructure is a primary focus, featuring the intersection of the Great Northern RR, the Northern Pacific RR, and the Pacific Highway.

Rural Snohomish County is meticulously documented through local landmarks and early educational sites, including the Marshland Sch (Aband) and North Creek Sch. The map preserves the locations of numerous family-named crossroads such as Murphys Corner, Larimer Corner, and Thrashers Corner. Moving south, the landscape transitions from the urban density of Lowell and Beverly Park toward the burgeoning communities of Bothell and Woodinville near the Snoqualmie River.
