1969 Map of South Bend West
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
The St Joseph River anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, winding through a dense urban and institutional corridor that includes St Marys College and Holy Cross College. During the late 1960s, the western expansion of South Bend met the agricultural and industrial fringes of German and Warren townships. This transition is marked by the presence of several large cemeteries, including Highland Cemetery and St Josephs Cemetery, situated near the major transport hub of the Michiana Regional Airport. The era’s industrial footprint is visible in the network of the Chicago South Shore and South Bend and Conrail railroads, which served local settlements like Lydick and Ardmore. Inland lakes such as North Chain Lake and Chamberlain Lake reflect the glacial topography that persists even as suburban growth and the Indiana East-West Toll Road reshaped the region's connectivity.
