About this map

Lake Calhoun, Lake Harriet, and Cedar Lake anchor the central landscape of this early 1950s urban survey, illustrating the sophisticated integration of water and parkland within the growing city. The residential expansion of Edina, Morningside, and St Louis Park is well underway, yet several gravel pits and substantial undeveloped tracts like Bryn Mawr Meadows still mark the transition between the dense downtown core and the emerging suburbs.
