1960 Map of Brady North

About this map

The city of Brady serves as a prominent hub at the edge of the Brady Mountains, shown here during a period of transition as the rail economy shifted. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Grade anchors the southern landscape, while Curtis Field Municipal Airport and the G Rollie White Downs Racetrack highlight the area's mid-century development. Genealogy and local history researchers can trace family landmarks like the Rest Haven Cem and the First United Ch near the city center. The surrounding terrain is defined by water management and drainage, with Reservoir No 45, Reservoir No 44, and Reservoir No 46 controlling runoff into Live Oak Creek and Brady Creek. Further east, the small settlement of East Sweden sits near Sweden Hollow, reflecting the rural character of McCulloch County.
