1968 Map of Fairfax

About this map

The town of Fairfax and its surrounding countryside in the late 1960s reveal a landscape defined by the convergence of major rail lines and rural community centers. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts diagonally across the southern half of the sheet, intersecting near Walford, while the Chicago and North Western tracks parallel the course of Prairie Creek. These transportation corridors historically fueled the growth of settlements like Atkins in the north and the western edges of Cedar Rapids in the northeast.
