1997 Map of Lacey
USGS Topo · Published 2003About this map
Henderson Inlet and the Nisqually Reach define the northern maritime character of this landscape, where the Puget Sound shoreline meets the growing suburban infrastructure of the late 20th century. The transition from the rural community of South Bay to the expanding corporate boundaries of Lacey and Olympia is evident in the dense network of schools, hospitals, and colleges. Significant institutional landmarks including St Martins College, Lacey Pacific University, and the Saint Peters Hospital complex highlight the area's development as a regional hub. Local history is preserved in sites like the Ruddell Pioneer Cemetery and the industrial remnants at Union Mill. A series of glacial lakes, including Hicks Lake, Pattison Lake, and the sprawling Long Lake, provide a natural contrast to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad corridor and major thoroughfares like Martin Way and Pacific Ave.
