About this map

The University of Missouri and the surrounding academic core of Columbia dominate the northeastern portion of this mid-century landscape. This area, anchored by Stephens College and Christian College, shows a sophisticated educational hub supported by the Wabash railroad and the Municipal Airport. Beyond the urban center, the terrain transitions into the complex drainage systems of Hinkson Creek and Perche Creek as they flow toward the Missouri River.
