About this map

Springfield expands eastward during the mid-20th century, with significant residential and industrial growth shown through purple revision overlays. The southeastern periphery of the city is defined by major thoroughfares such as Sunshine Drive and Battlefield Road, while the St Louis - San Francisco railroad cuts through the landscape. The rural-to-urban transition is marked by a high concentration of community landmarks, including local schools like Shady Dell Sch and Glendale High Sch, and numerous family cemeteries such as Bodenhamer Cem and Webb Cem. The area around the James River reveals a landscape of limestone extraction and water management, evidenced by the Pumping Station and several Mines. Beyond the city limits, the landscape retains its agricultural character in townships like Jackson and Taylor, where older settlements like Galloway and Turners (Turner Sta) serve as points of local history along the river and rail lines.
