1961 Map of Tacoma North

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Tacoma anchors this coastal survey, where the intricate industrial waterfront of the Port of Tacoma meets the deep waters of Commencement Bay. The map traces the specialized maritime infrastructure along the Hylebos Waterway and Blair Waterway, reaching into the mouth of the Puyallup River. To the north, the terrain transitions into the residential and natural landscapes of Vashon Island and Maury Island, connected by the narrow isthmus at Dockton. The presence of the Puyallup Indian Reservation Bdy crossing through the rising heights of Indian Hill reflects the complex land use history of the region.
