The glacial lakes of Waukesha County dominate this early twentieth-century landscape, where established resorts and institutional grounds sit among a dense network of water bodies. Oconomowoc and Pewaukee serve as primary hubs, connected by the Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul railroad and the newer lines of the Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Co. The map reveals a specialized local economy, including the State Fish Hatchery near Delafield and the State Sanitarium on the slopes of Lapham Hill.
