1951 Map of Sault Ste. Marie

About this map

The Sault Ste. Marie waterfront and the iconic Soo Locks dominate this mid-century portrait of the international border. Along the Saint Marys River, the map captures a transition between the industrial navigation channels of the Little Rapids Channel and the rural reaches of Sugar Island. The transport network is particularly dense here, featuring the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie RR and the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic RR converging on the city. Further south, the landscape shifts toward the massive Munuscong State Forest and agricultural settlements like Dafter and Donaldson. Notable for genealogists are the numerous rural schoolhouses, such as Christie Sch and McKinnon Sch, alongside military installations including Camp Lucas and the northern edge of the Kinross Air Force Base.
