USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Milwaukee River dictates the layout of Washington County in this late-1950s survey, winding southward through the industrial and residential core of West Bend. This era shows a community in transition, as the once-distinct settlement of Barton sits just north of the expanding city limits, linked by the Chicago and North Western railroad. The landscape is heavily marked by its glacial history, with the Kettle Moraine State Forest and numerous kettle lakes like Silver Lake and Lucas Lake defining the western edge of the quadrangle.
