1969 Map of Vermillion

About this map

The city of Vermillion serves as the focal point of this survey, dominated by the campus of the University of South Dakota and a network of residential streets such as Main St and University St. Situated at the confluence of the Vermillion River and the broad Missouri River valley, the area shows a landscape defined by both academic growth and agricultural management. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad tracks cut through the lowlands, linking the town to the wider Missouri River Basin.
