1954 Map of Suffolk

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The city of Suffolk serves as a major logistical hub in the mid-1950s, defined by a dense intersection of rail lines including the Virginian, Seaboard Air Line, and Norfolk and Western railroads. This era captures the community's established infrastructure, from the Filter Plant near Lake Kilby to educational centers like B T Washington High Sch and East Suffolk High Sch. To the east, the map transitions abruptly into the Dismal Swamp, where the Jericho Canal and Washington Ditch represent historic attempts to manage this complex wetland environment.
