About this map

Little Rock sprawls into its southwestern suburbs and the foothills of Ellis Mountain in this detailed 2011 topographic study. The landscape is defined by a dense network of residential developments and numerous private lakes, many of which are managed by significant infrastructure like Sprick Lake Dam and Jack Ward Lake Dam. Transportation corridors dominate the southern portion of the sheet, with the interstate and rail lines connecting established communities such as Alexander and Collegeville.

Genealogical interest is particularly high due to the density of memorial grounds, including large sites like Pine Crest Memorial Park and Forest Hills Memorial Park, alongside smaller local plots such as Mission Cemetery and Valley Pine Cemetery. Cultural landmarks range from the local Benton Speed Bowl to the Garrett Landing Strip, illustrating the mix of recreational and industrial land use on the outskirts of the capital. The hydrology is equally complex, featuring the winding paths of McHenry Creek and Fourche Creek as they navigate the shifting elevations of the Pulaski County terrain.
