1953 Map of Kelso

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Cowlitz River serves as the central artery of this region, separating the industrial and residential centers of Kelso and Longview. This survey shows the urban layout during a period of significant mid-century development, including the intricate street grid of West Kelso and the planned residential patterns of Columbia Valley Gardens and Davis Terrace. The landscape is dominated by the confluence where the Cowlitz meets the Columbia River near Slaughters Channel, a vital junction for the regional economy.
