1964 Map of Levey SW

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Snake River frontage and the shifting topography of the Sand Dunes dominate this 1964 survey of the Washington interior. The landscape is defined by the critical infrastructure of the mid-20th century, including the Burlington Northern railroad corridor and the massive Ice Harbor Dam at the southern edge. The map reveals a transition from the river's industrial and hydroelectric focus to the arid uplands of Franklin Co, crossed by essential transport routes like the Pasco Kahlotus Road and Martindale Road. Scattered across the terrain, utilitarian features such as a Dry Well, Gravel Pit, and several Water Tanks indicate the logistical challenges of managing this environment. This survey captures a specific moment when the regional economy was tightly bound to the development of the river system and the maintenance of long-distance transport networks through the dunes.
