1940 Map of Rhinelander

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Rhinelander serves as the industrial and transit hub of this lake-strewn landscape, where the Chicago and Northwestern and the Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads converge along the banks of Boom Lake. The 1940 field examination reveals a region deeply defined by its water and timber heritage, with numerous small schools scattered through the woods to serve rural families, including Wildwood Sch, Hammel Sch, and Roosevelt Sch. A Slaughterhouse near the city's edge and the concentration of rail lines suggest the local importance of processing and transport for the surrounding agricultural and forest lands.
