1949 Map of Renton
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The industrial and transportation corridor south of Seattle is captured here at a mid-century turning point, centered on the growing hub of Renton. The map highlights a landscape in transition, where legacy infrastructure like the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad and the Northern Pacific lines meet newer developments like the Renton Airport and the iconic Longacres Race Track. While the Cedar River and Green River define the natural drainage, the human footprint is marked by extensive utility networks, including an aqueduct and multiple underground pipelines.
