1958 Map of Westport

About this map

The town of Westport serves as the central hub of this late-1950s landscape, positioned at the intersection of the New York Central and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads. The area's geography is defined by the winding course of Sand Creek, which carves deep valleys through the eastern sections, notably at Horseshoe Bend. An interesting historical boundary, the Old Indian Treaty Bdy, cuts diagonally across the southern half of the map, marking an earlier era of frontier demarcation.
