1962 Map of Palmer

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Deep River and Salt Creek wind through this corner of Northwest Indiana, illustrating the rural landscape before late-century suburban expansion. The 1962 topography shows the importance of the regional rail network, with the Norfolk and Western, Chesapeake and Ohio, and Conrail lines crossing the terrain. These rail corridors intersect historical routes like the Old Lincoln Way, which parallels U.S. 30.
