USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
Waukesha and its surrounding townships show the intense expansion of the Milwaukee metropolitan area in the late 1950s. The red-shaded urban tint pushes westward through West Allis and Wauwatosa, meeting the developing residential and industrial pockets of Brookfield and Elm Grove. Amidst this growth, the landscape remains punctuated by significant aviation and recreational landmarks, including Timmerman Airport, Capitol Drive Airport, and the State Fair Park grounds.
