1953 Map of Muncie

About this map

Muncie and Anderson anchor the southwestern portion of this map, which captures the industrial and agricultural heart of the mid-century Midwest. The landscape is defined by the dense network of rail lines including the Pennsylvania RR, Nickel Plate RR, and New York Central RR, which served the bustling manufacturing centers of Marion, Lima, and Piqua. These rail corridors cut across the glacial drainages of the Wabash and Mississinewa valleys, connecting numerous county seats marked by landmarks like the Jay County Courthouse and the Adams County Courthouse.
