About this map

The Fox River and a sprawling chain of lakes define the landscape of this northeastern Illinois region during the early 1960s. Residential developments like Palm Beach, Eastwood Manor, and Emerald Park cluster around the waterfronts of Pistakee Lake and Wooster Lake, reflecting the post-war suburbanization of Lake and McHenry counties. The map records several youth and recreation sites, including Camp Henry Horner, Camp Hickory, and Camp Dundas, alongside local infrastructure such as a Drive-in Theater and the Sanitarium near Wooster Lake.
