1961 Map of Hutchinson SE

About this map

Hutchinson Municipal Airport anchors the landscape of this Central Kansas survey, surrounded by the agricultural townships of Medora, Clay, and Valley. The mid-century transport network is clearly defined by three major rail lines, including the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific. Small communities and named landmarks like Obeeville and Punkin Center punctuate the grid, while the Bethany Ch and a local Drive-in Theater serve as social markers for the era. Hydrological features such as Brandy Lake and the meandering Little River provide a natural contrast to the industrial presence of a Sandpit, various Oil Well sites, and a Mine. This 1961 edition, updated in the late 1970s, captures the transition between rural prairie life and the expanding infrastructure of the Reno County region.
