1985 Map of St. Paul

About this map

The confluence of Nebraska's river systems dominates this mid-1980s landscape, where the North Loup River, Middle Loup River, and South Loup River converge toward the Platte River valley. The map documents a well-defined agricultural and transportation grid, anchored by the Burlington Northern and Union Pacific railroads that connect rural hubs like St Paul and Central City. A notable cultural feature is the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, which cuts across the modern section lines in the northern reaches of the map.
