1959 Map of Johnson East

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Johnson (Johnson City) anchors the western edge of this High Plains landscape, serving as a vital hub for the surrounding agricultural and energy-producing region. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line cuts directly across the center of the sheet, illustrating the critical role of rail transport in moving local commodities to market. This survey from the late 1950s, with later photographic revisions, reveals an extensive network of Gas Wells dotting the terrain, particularly in the northern and eastern sections. Infrastructure like the Stanton County Municipal Airport and the Sewage Disposal plant near the city limits reflects mid-century civic development. In the southern reaches, the drainage of Sand Arroyo Creek meanders across the flatlands, providing a natural contrast to the grid-like precision of section lines and transport routes.
