About this map

The Puyallup Valley serves as the central corridor for this 2011 survey, dominated by the winding course of the Puyallup River and its many tributaries, including Clarks Creek and Simons Creek. This era shows a dense network of suburban development and infrastructure surrounding the core of Puyallup, where the Meeker Mansion and the Western Washington State Fair Grounds stand as significant cultural landmarks. To the east, the agricultural legacy of the region is still visible at the Van Leirop Bulb Farm.

The map details an intricate water management system, ranging from the McMillin Reservoir Number Two in the south to various hatcheries like the Puyallup Hatchery. Local history is anchored by sites such as Sumner Cemetery and Woodbine Cemetery, while transport history is reflected at Hughes Siding. The transition from the low-lying valley floor to the residential heights of South Hill and Summit illustrates the modern expansion of these Pierce County communities.
