1948 Map of Kimmswick

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Jefferson Barracks anchors the northern reaches of this Mississippi River corridor, a landscape defined by the confluence of heavy rail traffic and waterborne commerce just south of St. Louis. The Mississippi River serves as a massive boundary between the bluffs of Rock and Joachim townships in Missouri and the low-lying bottoms of Moredock and Bluff in Illinois. Industrial and transit hubs such as Herculaneum and Kimmswick are linked by the Missouri Pacific and the St Louis Iron Mountain and Southern railroads, which hug the riverbanks and facilitate the movement of goods from the interior.
