1955 Map of Fairbanks D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The growing interior hub of Fairbanks is centered between the Chena River and Noyes Slough during this mid-century period. Settlement patterns radiate from the urban core toward neighborhoods like Lemeta, Slaterville, and Hamilton Acres, while the University of Alaska anchors the nearby community of College. The landscape is defined by the heavy footprint of the Ladd Air Force Base, which occupies a large swathe of land south of the river, complete with a dedicated Bombing and Gunnery Range extending toward the Salchaket Slough.
