About this map

The eastern shore of Lake Washington and the winding course of the Sammamish River define this highly developed corridor during the early 2010s. Major municipalities like Kirkland, Redmond, and Bothell are shown in their modern urban density, yet the map still preserves the names of smaller, historically distinct neighborhoods and crossroads such as Finn Hill, Juanita, and Oskams Corner. The landscape is a mix of residential growth and recreation, featuring landmarks like the Juanita Golf Course and the Northwest Univ campus.

Transportation infrastructure dominates the interior, with the complex interchanges of Interstate 405 and Highway 520, including the Governor Albert D. Rosellini Bridge-Evergreen Point. Despite the urban sprawl, natural features such as Norway Hill and Forbes Lake remain prominent. The map provides a detailed record of the waterfront communities of Yarrow Point and Hunts Point, illustrating how the region's geography has been shaped by both the lake and the significant expansion of the Seattle metropolitan area.
