About this map

The State Capitol stands as the central landmark of this mid-century survey, anchoring the isthmus between Lake Mendota and Lake Monona. This map captures a significant period of suburban expansion for Madison, with purple-tinted revision zones documenting the growth of Middleton and Shorewood Hills. Institutional and educational development is prominent, ranging from Edgewood College to the extensive University of Wisconsin Arboretum and the Academy of St Benedict on the northern shore.
