1967 Map of Inver Grove Heights

About this map

The Mississippi River corridor dominates this late-1960s landscape, illustrating the industrial and residential growth south of the Twin Cities. Urban expansion is evident through a network of newly developed streets like 70th Street and Yankee Doodle Road, while the traditional river economy persists at Roseport and Pine Bend. The map documents a community in transition, where established rural sites like Salem Church Cem and the St Patricks Ch sit alongside modern landmarks such as the South St Paul Municipal Airport (Fleming Field).
