1960 Map of Moscow East

About this map

The city of Moscow anchors the northwestern corner of this 1960 survey, showcasing the urban grid of the county seat as it expanded eastward into the Palouse hills. The map highlights key civic institutions of the era, including the Courthouse, High Sch, and Jr High Sch, alongside smaller neighborhood hubs like Russell Sch and Whitmore Sch. This period captures the community before modern suburban sprawl, where the Northern Pacific railroad still defined the transport corridor through the valley of South Fork Paradise Creek.
