1971 Map of Rockford North

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Rock River carves a path through the heart of this mid-1970s landscape, illustrating the northward expansion of Rockford into the growing communities of Loves Park and North Park. This era shows a transition from the industrial and civic core of the city, marked by the Courthouse and Swedish-American Hospital, to the suburbanizing outskirts where the Rockford Speedway and Machesney Airport anchor local recreation and transport. The map documents an extensive social infrastructure, including the Mt St Francis Convent, Rockford College, and numerous parochial schools like St Bridgets Sch.
