1953 Map of Saint Paul

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Saint Paul and Minneapolis anchor this regional perspective of the Upper Mississippi River valley, showing the Twin Cities as they evolved during the mid-20th century. The intricate shoreline of Lake Minnetonka and the surrounding basin of smaller lakes like Lake Waconia and Lake Auburn define the western landscape, which was increasingly connected by the rising interstate system and established lines of the Chicago Milwaukee Saint Paul and Pacific railroad. The confluence of the St Croix River and the Mississippi highlights a transport corridor that shaped early settlements from Hastings to Red Wing.
