1958 Map of Milwaukee

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Milwaukee and its lakefront suburbs are shown here in the late 1950s, revealing a dense urban grid heavily influenced by industrial and transport corridors. The meeting of the Milwaukee River, Menomonee River, and Kinnickinnic River forms the city's commercial heart, where landmarks like City Hall and the Municipal Pier anchor the downtown and harbor. Significant industrial activity is evident along Jones Island, home to the Sewage Disposal plant and extensive rail yards of the Milwaukee Road.
