1973 Map of Madrid

About this map

Madrid serves as the primary hub of this High Plains landscape, situated along the Burlington Northern railroad corridor. The settlement is clearly defined by its grid of streets, a local Cem, and a Sewage Disposal facility on the eastern outskirts near the winding course of Stinking Creek. The surrounding terrain is heavily shaped by agricultural and resource needs, as evidenced by numerous irrigation and water wells dotting the sections and a Gravel Pit located to the south of the town center. This survey captures the Perkins County countryside as it appeared in the early 1970s, showcasing a reliable pattern of section-line roads and field boundaries that define the region's land use.
