1956 Map of Lake Wichita

About this map

Lake Wichita anchors this landscape, serving as a focal point for the south edge of Wichita Falls and the rural lands of both Wichita Co and Archer Co. The mid-century development of the city is evident through the campus of Midwestern University and the sprawling grounds of the Wichita Falls State Hospital. Beyond the urban core, the terrain is defined by the extraction economy of the Hull-Silk Oil Field, where numerous oil wells and pipelines crisscross the land around Lake Creek.
