USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The University of Chicago and the cultural landscape of the lakefront dominate this mid-century view of the city's south side. Significant institutions line the shore, from the Shedd Aquarium and Adler Planetarium at the northern edge down to the Museum of Science and Industry within the lagoons of Jackson Park. The map documents a period of active infrastructure development, specifically noting South Lake Shore Drive under construction south of the Midway Plaisance.
