1985 Map of Emporia

About this map

The Cottonwood River and Neosho River converge near the regional hub of Emporia, where the landscape transitions into the distinct topography of the Flint Hills. This mid-1980s planimetric survey documents a vast network of tallgrass prairie drainage systems, including Diamond Creek, Middle Creek, and the Verdigris River. Transportation infrastructure is dominated by the Kansas Turnpike and the historic route of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which links smaller agricultural settlements like Strong City, Elmdale, and Saffordville.
