1959 Map of Madison East

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Truax Field and the expanding suburbs of Madison define this mid-century portrait of Dane County. The landscape is characterized by the complex hydrology of the Yahara River chain, linking Lake Mendota, Lake Monona, and Lake Waubesa. Heavy industrial and municipal infrastructure, including a large Tank Farm and Sewage Disposal plants, sit adjacent to the marshy lowlands of Blooming Grove.
