1948 Map of Geneva

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Fox River corridor anchors this mid-century portrait of Kane County, serving as the industrial and social spine for St Charles, Geneva, and Batavia. These riverfront communities are shown just before the era of major suburban expansion, still separated by significant stretches of agricultural land and defined by a dense network of steam and electric rail lines. The presence of institutional landmarks like the State School for Boys, the State School for Girls, and the Kane County Home reflects the region's historical role in state social services, while Mooseheart stands as a distinct community along the riverbanks.
