1964 Map of Levey SW

About this map

Snake River frontage and the massive engineering of the Ice Harbor Dam dominate this mid-century look at the border of Franklin Co and Walla Walla Co. The landscape is characterized by shifting Sand Dunes and the prominent Sandridge, where the terrain transitions toward a more industrial and transport-heavy corridor along the water. Significant infrastructure is mapped in detail, including a major Pipeline cutting across the northern sections and the tracks of the Spokane Portland and Seattle railroad following the river’s curve. Local transit and land use are evidenced by the Pasco Kahlotus Road, a Jeep Trail, and several resource extraction sites like a Gravel Pit and Borrow Pit, illustrating a period of active construction and utility development in the Washington interior.
