About this map

The rugged shoreline of Lake Superior meets a network of vital waterways in this mid-century look at the North Shore. The Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad hugs the coast, serving as a corridor for industrial transport through Clifton and across the French River. Inland, the map reveals the scattered rural development of Normanna and Lakewood, where local civic life centered around landmarks like the Normanna Cem and the Town Hall.
