About this map

Maize and Valley Center anchor this mid-century portrait of the Kansas plains, where agriculture and infrastructure meet the winding path of the Little Arkansas River. The landscape is defined by its complex water management, featuring the massive Wichita Valley Center Floodway and several Aqueducts designed to control the flow through the Eagle Valley Center. A network of railroads, including the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Missouri Pacific, crisscrosses the township of Union, marking the region's importance as a transportation corridor.
