1956 Map of Fort Sill

About this map

Fort Sill Military Reservation dominates this mid-century landscape, showing the extensive infrastructure of the post alongside the rugged terrain of the Wichita Mountains. The map detail reflects the dual nature of the area, where the structured barracks and facilities of Fort Sill and the nearby Artillery Village give way to prominent landforms like Signal Mountain and Mount Hinds. This 1956 survey, with later revisions in purple, traces the urban expansion of Lawton and the development of the H. E. Bailey Turnpike slicing through the eastern corridor.
