1954 Map of Gladstone
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Camp Withycombe and the surrounding Clackamas River valley define the southern landscape of this mid-1950s survey. The map details the suburban expansion of Southeast Portland into neighborhoods like Arleta, Lents, and Woodstock, where residential grids meet industrial features like the Wichita Station and various gravel pits. The terrain is dominated by prominent elevations such as Mount Scott and Mount Talbert, while the residential areas are marked by numerous local institutions, including Our Lady of Sorrows School and Creston School. Significant land use is dedicated to large memorial sites like Lincoln Memorial Park Cem and Willamette National Cem. Transport networks are transitioning, shown through the intersection of the Southern Pacific Railroad and major thoroughfares like Powell Blvd and Foster Road, reflecting the region's post-war residential growth and its connection to the riverfront at Jennings Lodge and Gladstone Park.
