2014 Map of Issaquah

About this map

Lake Sammamish anchors the center of this 2014 survey, which highlights the rapid suburbanization and preserved natural spaces of the Eastside during the early 21st century. The growing city of Issaquah sits at the foot of the "Issaquah Alps," with steep topographical contours rising toward Cougar Mtn, Squak Mountain, and Tiger Mtn. This period shows the complex interface between high-density residential developments like Klahanie and large protected areas, including the City of Issaquah Watershed. Locally significant sites such as the Sammamish Bible Camp and Hillside Cem provide clear points of reference for genealogists and local historians. The map also records several lakeside communities such as Rosemont Beach and Alexander Beach, illustrating the transition of these shorelines from recreational outposts to permanent residential neighborhoods.
