1968 Map of Dodge City

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across the landscape north of the Arkansas River, a stark cartographic reminder of the region's complex 19th-century history. In Dodge City, the urban footprint expands northward from the historic riverfront, anchored by civic and educational institutions like St Mary of the Plains College, St Anthony Hospital, and the local Courthouse. This late 1960s survey, updated with late 1970s aerial photography, shows the density of the city's street grid, featuring historic thoroughfares such as Wyatt Earp Blvd and Front St. The industrial and logistics backbone of the area is clearly defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor. Beyond the city limits, the terrain transitions into the townships of Royal and Grandview, where the land is carved by Duck Creek and Saw Log Creek.
