1957 Map of Gardner
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Gardner serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated at the crossroads of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and expanding regional infrastructure. The landscape reveals a transition between rural agricultural land and significant military-industrial footprints, notably the US Naval Air Station (Inactive) and the Sunflower Ordnance Works reservation in the northwest. These sites, coupled with the Gardner Landing Field and a Radio Range Station, highlight the area's strategic importance during and after the war years.
