About this map

Caruthersville serves as the focal point for this survey of the Mississippi River floodplain, where the river's winding path creates a complex boundary between Missouri and Tennessee. The landscape is defined by extensive engineering works designed to manage the water, including the Caruthersville Dikes, Wells Pt Revet, and a series of landings like Fritz Ldg and Heloise Ldg. These features illustrate the river's role as a vital but volatile transportation artery during the mid-20th century.
