1952 Map of Silver Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The Kansas River flows through the center of this landscape, flanked by a complex system of levees protecting the agricultural bottomlands and growing settlements. North of the river, the town of Silver Lake sits near its namesake oxbow, while the railroad hamlets of Kiro and Menoken line the Union Pacific tracks. This mid-century survey captures the region during a period of transition, with later revisions showing the expansion of Topeka and its essential infrastructure, including the Hospital and Allen Airpark on the western edge of the city.
