1915 Map of Superior

About this map

St Louis Bay and the industrial waterfront of Superior define this mid-1910s landscape, where a dense network of competing railroads converges on the Great Lakes. The map illustrates a period of significant industrial growth, with specialized company towns and neighborhoods like Morgan Park, Steelton, and Gary appearing alongside the St Louis River. The shoreline is heavily shaped by commerce, featuring the long reach of Minnesota Point and the protected waters of Allouez Bay.
