1963 Map of Midvale
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Jordan River corridor south of Salt Lake City reveals a landscape of rapidly expanding post-war suburbanization alongside deep-rooted agricultural and industrial infrastructure. The city of Midvale serves as a primary hub, while the presence of the Sugar Refinery and various canals like the Utah and Salt Lake Canal and South Jordan Canal highlight the region's productive heritage. The rail network remains a dominant feature, with both the Denver and Rio Grande Western RR and the Union Pacific RR servicing industrial sidings and connecting the disparate settlements of South Jordan, Riverton, and Sandy City. To the west, the Salt Lake City Municipal Airport No 2 and the Utah State Prison occupy significant footprints on the valley floor, while numerous cemeteries including Wite Fort Cem and Lake Hill Cemetery provide critical data points for local genealogy.
