1951 Map of St. Paul

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

St Paul and its burgeoning suburbs dominate this mid-century landscape, centered on the strategic confluence of the Mississippi River and the Minnesota River. The historic grounds of the Fort Snelling Military Reservation stand at this junction, adjacent to the early aviation hub of Wold-Chamberlain Airport. The map captures a transitional era of urban expansion, where established educational institutions like Hamline University, St Thomas College, and Macalester College are surrounded by dense residential blocks and industrial facilities such as the Sewage Disposal and Fish Hatchery along the river banks.
