1959 Map of Hales Corners

About this map

St Martins and Tess Corners sit at the intersection of a rapidly urbanizing landscape where Milwaukee County meets WaukesHA County during the mid-twentieth century. This survey documents the post-war suburban expansion through the sprawling residential networks of Hales Corners, Greenfield, and New Berlin. The map records a time when aviation and infrastructure were integral to local growth, featuring the Hales Corners Airport and the developing Airport Freeway and Rock Freeway corridors.
