1963 Map of Harvey
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Illinois Central and Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroads form the industrial backbone of this suburban Cook County corridor during the early 1960s. Dense residential blocks in Harvey and Midlothian contrast with the sprawling grounds of the Oak Forest Hospital and the extensive Forest Preserve lands that buffer the growing communities of Markham and Homewood. The map reveals a landscape defined by its recreational and institutional anchors, including the prestigious Olympia Fields Country Club and the specialized campus of Tolentine College.
