1954 Map of New Athens East

About this map

The Kaskaskia River snakes through this St. Clair County landscape, which by the mid-1970s was a patchwork of agricultural bottoms and heavy industrial extraction. Extensive Strip Mine operations and a significant Mine Dump characterize the terrain south of New Athens, illustrating the region's reliance on coal. This industrial footprint is tied together by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad, which links the settlements of Lenzburg and Marissa.
