1979 Map of Burlington NE

About this map

The Minot Air Force Base dominates the southern half of this landscape, its sprawling infrastructure and pink-tinted residential areas standing in sharp contrast to the surrounding prairie. This late 1970s record highlights a transitional period where military expansion met rural tradition. In the townships of Waterford, Van Buren, and Den S I G N, the older agrarian order is still visible through the placement of scattered one-room schoolhouses like Copeland School No 1, School No 2, School No 3, and School No 4. Local landmarks such as Lynch Ch and the Burlington Northern railroad lines underscore the area's development. The natural drainage of Little Deep Creek and Egg Creek provides the only significant relief in a terrain otherwise defined by military utility and agricultural section lines.
