1957 Map of Hood River

About this map

The Columbia River serves as the dominant axis of this mid-century survey, dividing the steep terrain of Washington and Oregon before the full impact of modern regional development. The riverside is a corridors of heavy transit, featuring the Union Pacific and Spokane Portland and Seattle railroads alongside the Lewis and Clark Highway. Further south, the landscape transitions into the agricultural and timber-rich Dukes Valley, where the community of Dee and its associated Dee Flat Flume point to the area's historical reliance on water-driven industry and irrigation. Local life is anchored by institutions like the Wy East High Sch and Mid Valley Jr H S, while the surrounding Mt Hood National Forest and several riverfront state parks like Viento State Park preserve the character of the Gorge landscape.
