1951 Map of White Bear Lake East

About this map

White Bear Lake dominates this landscape, its eastern shores dotted with the residential and social hubs of Mahtomedi, Birchwood, and Dellwood during the early 1950s. The region exhibits a mix of seasonal leisure and established institutional life, evidenced by the Yacht Club and Manitou Island in the lake, alongside the Jesuit Retreat House near Lake De Montreville. Further south, the community of North St Paul shows a more structured grid, while the surrounding countryside in Oakdale and New Canada maintains a rural character defined by scattered schoolhouses like Castle Sch and School No 80.
