1964 Map of Northeast Missoula

About this map

The Clark Fork and Rattlesnake Creek converge at the foot of Mount Jumbo, defining the eastern gateway to Missoula during the mid-1960s. This survey, photorevised in the late 1970s, documents the city's residential expansion through the Rattlesnake School area and the industrial character of Bandmann Flats. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the Williams Ditch and the Pipeline crossing the northern gulches, while the southern valley floor shows established communities like East Missoula and West Riverside along the riverbanks.
