1913 Map of La Salle
USGS Topo · Published 1913About this map
The industrial corridor of the upper Illinois River dominates this 1913 survey, where a dense network of railroads and the historic Illinois and Michigan Canal meet the growing river towns. Industrial centers like La Salle, Peru, and Oglesby are shown in significant detail, alongside the academic landmark of St Bedes College and the recreation grounds at Webster Park. The map reveals the intricate transport web of the era, including the Streator and Walnut Branch RR and the Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul RR, which connected coal-mining settlements and agricultural outposts across the prairie.
