1959 Map of Green Bay Terrace

About this map

Lake of the Ozarks dominates this landscape, its intricate shoreline forming the deep Niangua Arm and Little Niangua Arm. The map reveals a mid-century period of transition as the lakeside community of Green Bay Terrace begins to take shape amidst long-established Ozark landmarks. Historical researchers can identify several rural anchors such as Mt Taber Ch, the New Home Ch, and the secluded Farmer Cem. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including the curiously named Deadman Ridge and Standing Rock Hollow. Recreation and tourism are evident through the presence of Bridal Cave and a Lookout Tower near the water, while the interior remains divided into older land partitions such as Adair, Russell, and Osage.
