USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Chicago Heights and the burgeoning suburban landscape of the early 1950s anchor this detailed study of the Cook and Will County border. The map reveals the planned expansion of Park Forest, noted for its distinctive street patterns and numerous educational institutions like Mohawk Sch and Sauk Trail Sch. This era of growth is juxtaposed with the natural preservation of the Sauk Trail Woods and the agricultural reaches of Monee and Crete townships.
