About this map

Rochester stands at a significant transportation and institutional crossroads in the late 1930s, anchored by the expansive Rochester State Hospital and the nearby Fair Grounds. The city's growth is clearly mapped along the lines of the Chicago and Northwestern and Chicago Great Western railroads, which connected the urban core to rural outposts like Haverhill Sta and Viola. To the north, the winding path of the Zumbro River leads to Lake Zumbro, where local recreation spots such as Cedar Beach and Kings Park appear alongside the Power House.
