About this map

Arkansas City stands as a focal point on this 1930s survey, positioned along the shifting banks where the Arkansas River meets the Mississippi River. The landscape is defined by the massive engineering efforts of the era, most notably the Ashbrook Cut-Off 1935 and Caulk Cut-Off 1937, which were designed to straighten the river's course and mitigate the chronic flooding of the Delta. These cut-offs transformed former active channels into features like Caulk Neck and left large land masses like Choctaw Island No 78 isolated between the old and new river paths.
