About this map

Joplin serves as the central anchor of this 1960s landscape, which transitioned into the late 1970s with significant suburban expansion shown in purple revision. The map reveals an area defined by heavy industry and community infrastructure, particularly evident in the numerous Quarries and extensive Old Railroad Grade networks that cross the terrain. Cultural landmarks like the Joe Becker Memorial Stadium and the Gateway Drive-in Theater highlight the mid-century social life of the region, while the southern portion remains more rural along Shoal Creek.
