1961 Map of Puyallup

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Puyallup River valley life in the early 1960s is defined by a dense intersection of heavy industry, agriculture, and expanding residential suburbs. The map reveals a landscape heavily carved by transportation, featuring a complex network of railroads including the Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific. While the downtown core of Puyallup shows significant development around Pioneer Park, the surrounding terrain maintains its specialized agricultural roots at the Western Washington Experimental Station and the State Fish Hatchery.
