About this map

Sangamon River and its South Fork anchor this 1965 survey of the eastern Springfield periphery, capturing a landscape of institutional history and mid-century growth. The map highlights significant regional landmarks including St Johns Sanitarium and the sprawling grounds of Camp Butler. Near the riverbanks, heavy industry is represented by numerous Claypits, while the burgeoning suburban character of the era is evident in neighborhoods like Arlington Heights, Grandview, and Southlawn.
