1993 Map of Wheeling
USGS Topo · Published 1993About this map
The Des Plaines River corridor serves as the spine of this northern Illinois suburban landscape, where the Lake County Forest Preserve and Potawatomi Woods create a substantial green buffer between rapidly expanding residential developments. The map reveals the sophisticated mid-century commercial and educational infrastructure of the region, anchored by the Hawthorn Center (Mall) and institutions like Lake Forest Academy. Suburban growth is evidenced by an extensive network of schools including Wheeling High Sch and Adlai E Stevenson Sch, alongside the legacy of local agriculture indicated by scattered Gravel Pits.
