1959 Map of Johnson East

About this map

Johnson (Johnson City) serves as the primary hub in this High Plains landscape, situated along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line. The map illustrates a region transitioning between agricultural use and industrial energy extraction, evidenced by the high density of Gas Wells scattered across the township sections. Transportation and infrastructure are central to the area's development, with the Stanton County Municipal Airport positioned north of the city and various municipal services like the Sewage Disposal plant noted near the tracks. The terrain is characterized by the broad, natural drainage of Sand Arroyo Creek to the south and the designated area of Big Bow to the east. This survey, updated with revisions from the late 1970s, captures the grid-like precision of Western Kansas development where rail, road, and resource extraction intersect.
