1953 Map of Rapid City West

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Rapid City expands westward into the foothills of the Black Hills South National Forest during the early 1950s, a period marked by the city's growth along the banks of Rapid Creek. This survey reveals the transition from urban infrastructure to the dense canyon systems that define the region's geography. Educational and social foundations are visible through sites like the Sioux Sanitorium, Camp Rapid, and several localized school districts including Red Brick Sch and South Canyon Sch.
