1961 Map of Janesville West

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Rock River bisects this mid-century landscape, acting as the industrial and civic spine for Janesville. In this era, the city's growth is clearly marked by the dense concentration of parochial and public education, including St Marys Sch and Franklin Jr High Sch, alongside civic landmarks like the Courthouse and the County Institution. The transport network is particularly complex here, with the Chicago and North Western and Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads converging near the river, facilitating the movement of materials from local Gravel Pits and quarries.
