1959 Map of Gypsum

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Catawba Island and the rugged Lake Erie coastline dominate this late-1950s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by its transition from industrial quarrying to lakeside recreation. The Marblehead Quarry and its smaller counterparts occupy significant portions of the eastern peninsula, while the New York Central railroad maintains a heavy four-track presence near Gypsum. This industrial activity contrasts with the development of Lakeside and the seasonal nature of Gem Beach.
