Overland Park and its surrounding suburban communities are shown during a phase of rapid residential expansion in the early 1970s. The pink-tinted urban areas push south from Shawnee and Merriam, reaching toward the more open landscapes of Oxford. The network of schools and churches, such as Queen of Holy Rosary Sch and Adventist Ch, serves as a marker for the growing neighborhoods. This era captures the early influence of Interstate 435 as it bisects the terrain, signaling a shift in transportation away from the older St Louis-San Francisco rail line.
