1962 Map of Joplin West

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Joplin and its western outskirts are captured here during a period of transition, where the heavy industrial legacy of the tri-state mining district meets mid-century suburban expansion. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's lead and zinc heritage, with numerous tailings piles and quarries scattered near Chitwood and Galena. These remnants of extraction sit alongside 1960s civic markers like the Drive-in Theater, a Race Track, and the Twin Hills Country Club.
