1965 Map of Iowa City West

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Iowa River corridor dominates this mid-century view of Johnson County, anchored by the expansive Coralville Reservoir and its associated Coralville Dam. The map captures the significant expansion of Iowa City and Coralville, particularly through the growth of the Univ of Iowa Med Center and the VA Hospital. Transportation patterns are defined by the Cedar Rapids and Iowa City railroad line and the emergence of Interstate highways through West Lucas. Local community landmarks, from the County Home to numerous schools like Mark Twain Sch and Regina High Sch, offer specific points of interest for genealogists. The presence of historic sites like Terrill Mill Pk and the Sturgis Ferry Park reflects the long-standing river-based economy that preceded the modern suburban and institutional development seen here.
