1957 Map of Gardner
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Gardner serves as the central hub of this Kansas landscape, situated at a major railroad junction during a period of mid-century military and industrial transition. To the northeast, the US Naval Air Station (Inactive) and the Sunflower Ordnance Works boundary indicate the area's strategic importance during the war years, while the Gardner Landing Field reflects the early aviation history of Johnson County. The geography is defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad tracks, which parallel the old Santa Fe roadbed as they cut diagonally across the terrain.
