About this map

The Sangamon River meanders across this mid-1960s landscape, defining the character of the river bluffs east of Springfield. The survey documents a critical period of infrastructure growth, showing the complex Sangamon Ave Interchange and the expansive Lake Springfield reservoir system complete with the Spaulding Dam and waterworks. To the east, the village of Riverton is surrounded by legacy industry and transit, including numerous claypits and a network of competing rail lines like the Illinois Terminal and the Baltimore and Ohio.
