About this map

Olympia and its surrounding inlets define the intricate shoreline of the southern Puget Sound in this late 1940s survey. The state's political heart is anchored by the State Capitol, while the industrial and transport character of the era is evident in the Northern Pacific rail lines serving Tumwater and Union Mills. This landscape is a complex network of peninsulas and passages, featuring the Squaxon Island Indian Reservation and Hartstene Island.
