2013 Map of Onalaska

About this map

Livingston Reservoir dominates this landscape, its western shores heavily developed with residential networks such as Onalaska and West Tempe. The map illustrates the contemporary expansion of waterfront communities, where winding roads like Penwah Pines and Westridge Park replace the rural tracts once defined by older homesteads and logging. Despite the modern density near the water, the eastern and northern reaches maintain a more traditional character, where family-named markers like Wright Cem and Robinett Cem persist alongside small settlements like Patonia. This juxtaposition reveals the transition from a creek-and-branch economy—visible in labels like Robinett Br and Sank Br—to a recreational and residential hub centered on the reservoir. Significant local landmarks, including the Onalaska Lookout and Saint Andrew Cem, anchor the community's local history amidst the sprawling new development.
