1950 Map of Spokane NE

About this map

Felts Field, the municipal airport, sits along the Spokane River in an era of rapid industrial and rail expansion northeast of the city. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of transportation, including the Great Northern and Union Pacific railroads, which service industrial pockets like Parkwater and Yardley. Further north, the terrain transitions from the developed grids of Hillyard to the agricultural expanses of Orchard Prairie and Pleasant Prairie. Notable institutional landmarks include the Mt St Michael Scholasticate overlooking the valley and the Edgecliff Sanitarium to the south. This survey also documents local community hubs like the Hutton Settlement and the Sekani Boy Scout Camp, alongside numerous neighborhood schools such as Arlington Sch and Orville C Pratt Sch, illustrating the postwar suburban growth between Spokane and the Spokane Valley.
