About this map

Great Falls is the industrial and transport hub of this mid-century landscape, positioned at the critical junction where the Missouri River meets the Great Sun River. The map illustrates a thriving post-war community supported by the Great Northern and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads. Significant industrial activity is evident through the Oil Refinery and numerous Gravel Pits, while the presence of institutions like Columbus Hospital and multiple neighborhood schools—including McKinley Sch and Whittier Sch—points to a maturing urban center.
