1949 Map of Fort Sill

About this map

Medicine Park sits at the edge of the granite hills and the Lake Lawtonka shoreline, serving as a distinct resort and residential pocket adjacent to the massive Fort Sill Military Reservation. This mid-century landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the United States Army, with the sprawling infrastructure of Fort Sill featuring its own Post Office, Post Chapel, and Post Cemetery. The map captures a transition from the structured military cantonment to the surrounding agricultural and tribal lands, evidenced by the Fort Sill Indian School and the Mt Scott Comanche Mission to the north.
