1953 Map of Seward

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Alaska Railroad and the newly completed Seward Hwy serve as the vital arteries connecting the southern coast to the interior in this 1953 survey. From the deep-water port of Seward at the head of Resurrection Bay, the transport network winds north through the Kenai Mountains, passing established settlements like Moose Pass and Lawing. The map captures the industrial importance of Whittier on Blackstone Bay and the older mining-era sites of Hope and Sunrise near the Turnagain Arm.
