1913 Map of Lincoln

About this map

The Logan County prairie of the early 1910s reveals a landscape defined by an exceptionally dense network of rural schoolhouses and complex rail junctions. Lincoln sits at the heart of this grid, where the Chicago and Alton and Illinois Central lines intersect with the Illinois Traction System. This transit hub facilitated the growth of institutional sites like the County Farm and the Asylum Farm south of the city center.
