1963 Map of West View

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

West Branch Rocky River defines the eastern corridor of this landscape, meandering through a region where suburban expansion from Berea and Olmsted Falls meets the rural townships of Columbia and Eaton. The map illustrates a mid-century infrastructure in transition, anchored by the Ohio Toll Road Turnpike in the north and the industrial presence of the Conrail and Baltimore and Ohio railroads. Small, established settlements like Columbia Station and Hardscrabble are visible alongside local aviation markers such as Columbia Airport and a separate Landing Strip. Local genealogy is well-represented through landmarks like Myrtle Cemetery and St Marys Cemetery, while the proliferation of leisure sites like Columbia Hills Golf Club and Riverside Golf Club suggests the post-war shift toward residential recreation. Numerous gas wells dot the western sections of the quadrangle, indicating the active extraction industry alongside traditional farming acreage.
