USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Vancouver Lake and the Columbia River dominate the landscape of this 1961 survey, which also includes 1970 photo-revisions shown in purple. These revisions highlight the rapid expansion of Vancouver northward toward Salmon Creek and Minnehaha. The industrial character of the waterfront is evident near Mathews Point, where the Aluminum Plant and Burlington Northern rail lines interface with the shipping channels of Friendly Reach.
