1954 Map of West Duluth

About this map

The industrial and maritime heart of the St Louis River valley is revealed here in the mid-1950s, where the borders of Duluth, Minnesota, and Superior, Wisconsin, meet. This period shows a complex rail-and-water network supporting specialized neighborhoods like Morgan Park and Steelton. The geography is defined by the winding river channel as it widens into Spirit Lake, punctuated by landmarks such as Clough Island and Spirit Island. On the Minnesota side, the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range railroad snakes through the terrain, connecting industrial pockets and residential centers like Proctor and Gary.
