1962 Map of Bismarck

About this map

The Missouri River and Heart River define the development of this state capital during the mid-twentieth century. Revisions from 1976 highlight the rapid expansion of Bismarck, specifically northward into Highland Acres and eastward through new residential developments and schools like Northridge Sch. The landscape retains deep ties to the frontier era, preserved at the Fort Lincoln State Park and the Fort McKeen Historic Site situated along the western bluffs.
