1906 Map of Madison
USGS Topo · Published 1910About this map
Madison is defined by its dramatic isthmus setting at the start of the 20th century, anchored by the sprawling University of Wisconsin campus on the shores of Lake Mendota. This survey illustrates a period of significant regional development, where the capital city serves as a central hub for five distinct railroad lines, including the Chicago and Northwestern RR and the Illinois Central RR. Beyond the urban core, the landscape features institutional landmarks like the State Hospital for the Insane at Mendota and the State Fish Hatchery to the south.
