1961 Map of Lafayette West
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
The Wabash River serves as the central artery for this twin-city landscape, dividing West Lafayette and Lafayette during a period of significant mid-century expansion. Purdue University dominates the western bank, with its sprawling campus and specialized facilities including the Purdue University Airport, Purdue University Horticulture Farm, and Purdue University Dairy Farm. This map highlights the region's institutional character, from the Soldiers Home and Wabash Sanitarium in the north to the Home for Aged in the south. Transportation networks are well-defined by the Norfolk and Western and Conrail lines, which supported the industrial and agricultural needs of settlements like Klondike and Elston. Cultural and historical landmarks like the Quiatenon Blockhouse and the Tippecanoe Memory Gardens Cemetery provide essential touchpoints for local historians and genealogists tracing the development of Tippecanoe County.
