Description

The twin ports, Superior, Wisconsin, Duluth, Minnesota. H. Wellge, del. Freeman Eng. Co.

This beautifully portrayed panoramic view of the twin ports of Superior, Wisconsin and Duluth, Minnesota was drawn by Henry Wellge in 1915, reprint. It is a bird's-eye view showing St. Louis, Superior and Allouez Bays along with the ports and the metropolitan areas. Superior, county seat for Douglas County, Wisconsin; and Duluth, county seat for St. Louis County, Minnesota, were settled in the mid-1800's with the completion of the ship canal and locks. The locks permitted larger ships access to the two ports sharing the harbors. With the addition of the Northern Pacific Railway, Superior and Duluth combined, became a major shipping and railway community transporting lumber, iron ore and steel. U. S. Steel built a huge 5 million dollar plant in Duluth that began producing steel in the year of this map's publishing.

This map reprint from 1915 shows shipping traffic, buildings and railway routes.
