1948 Map of Terre Haute

About this map

The Wabash River carves a deep horseshoe bend between the industrial hubs and residential grid of Terre Haute and its western neighbor, West Terre Haute. This post-war survey illustrates a city defined by its heavy rail infrastructure, with the New York Central, Pennsylvania, and several other lines converging at Union Sta and the expansive Duane Yards. The landscape is dotted with a remarkably dense concentration of educational and civic institutions, ranging from Teachers College to specialized schools like Booker Washington Sch and Gerstmeyer High School.
