USGS Topo · Published 1938About this map
Iowa City and its surrounding townships appear in a period of agricultural stability and institutional growth along the banks of the Iowa River. The map meticulously records the rural school system of the 1930s, documenting dozens of named institutions like Sandhill Sch and Hartsock Sch that served the dispersed farming community. The presence of the State Sanatorium near Oakdale and the School No 1 County Farm reflects the era's specialized social and medical infrastructure.
