1961 Map of Linnton

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Linnton and St Johns anchor this 1961 study of the northern Portland area, where the Willamette River transitions from industrial waterfronts to the winding Channel around Sauvie Island. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of the Tualatin Mountains, crossed by Skyline Blvd and Germantown Road. This period captures the steady outward expansion of residential areas into the hills and valleys, visible in the growth of Cedar Mill, Bonny Slope, and Marlene Village. Cultural and community markers are densely plotted, from the Grange Hall near McNamee to various local schools like McKinley Sch and Ridgewood Sch. Further south, the map details the suburban development around Aloha and Huber, while highlighting major infrastructure such as the St Johns Bridge and the rail lines of the Burlington Northern and Union Pacific railroads.
