1967 Map of St Paul East

About this map

The Mississippi River carves a deep arc through this urban landscape, defining the industrial and civic heart of St Paul during the late twentieth century. This survey documents the dense concentration of religious and educational institutions that anchored these neighborhoods, including the iconic St Paul Cathedral and numerous parochial schools like St Joseph Sch and St Michael Sch. The riverfront itself is a hub of activity, featuring the Paul Downtown Airport (Holman Field) situated on a large bend across from Harriet Island. To the north and east, the transition into Maplewood and Roseville is marked by expansive green spaces and water bodies, most notably Phalen Lake and the historic Oakland Cemetery. The presence of the Chicago and North Western rail line and major thoroughfares like Warner Road illustrate the city's role as a regional transportation nexus, while the sprawling Pigs Eye Lake dominates the southeastern quadrant.
