1964 Map of Sioux Center
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Sioux Center serves as the primary hub of activity in this 1964 Iowa survey, which highlights the town's expansion near the Burlington Northern railroad. The inclusion of Dordt College and the Kinsey Sch reflects the community's mid-century development and focus on local education. Land use patterns are clearly delineated, with the grid of the city contrasting against the surrounding agricultural townships of Plato, Welcome, Center, and West Branch. Water features dominate the rural landscape, specifically the Sixmile Creek to the northwest and the West Branch Floyd River which meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle to join the Floyd River. Purple photorevisions from 1980 show suburban growth and institutional changes that occurred in the decade following the original field check.
