1978 Map of Spokane NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Spokane metropolitan area is captured here in an orthophotograph format, reflecting a period of significant urban and suburban expansion in eastern Washington. The dense street grids of the city transition into the developing neighborhoods of Dishman and the more open terrain surrounding Glenrose. This aerial perspective provides a unique view of the landscape where human development meets the natural geography of the region, notably the winding path of the Spokane River as it cuts through the center of the sheet. To the north, the elevation rises toward Little Baldy, where the suburban sprawl gives way to forested and agricultural land. The map serves as a precise record of the road networks, industrial corridors, and residential patterns of the late 1970s, as documented by the U.S. Geological Survey and the State of Washington Department of Natural Resources.
