1970 Map of Bentonville South

About this map

Bentonville and Rogers dominate this northwest Arkansas landscape during a period of significant suburban expansion and infrastructure growth. Purple photorevision updates from 1976 reveal a shifting residential pattern, particularly around the Bentonville Municipal Airport and south toward Cave Springs. The corridor between the primary towns is dotted with local landmarks like the Drive-in Theater and the Benton County Memorial Gardens. A strong rural presence remains in the surrounding townships of Osage and Washington, where established community centers like Lowell and Liberty Bell Community Center serve as anchors. The survey captures the transition from farmland to commercial developments, such as the Southgate Shopping Center, while traditional landmarks like Mt Hebron Ch and Goad Springs Cem provide a genealogical record of the region's heritage.
