1965 Map of Fort Dodge South
USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The Des Moines River carves a deep, wooded path through the center of this Webster County landscape, contrasting sharply with the geometric agricultural grid that defines the surrounding townships. In the mid-1960s, the southern reaches of Fort Dodge show a heavy industrial footprint concentrated along the riverbanks, evidenced by numerous quarries and the presence of kilns near Coalville. This industrial character is supported by a dense network of transit, including the Chicago and North Western and the Fort Dodge Des Moines and Southern railroads.
