1952 Map of Farmington

About this map

The eastern shores of the Great Salt Lake define this landscape, where the Farmington Bay Bird Refuge meets a growing corridor of settlements along the base of the mountains. This mid-century survey captures the region as residential expansion began to bridge the gaps between historic towns like Farmington and Bountiful. The transportation network is dominated by the parallel routes of the Union Pacific and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroads, which serviced industrial and agricultural needs at Farmington Siding and Woods Cross Siding.
