About this map

The White River corridor south of Indianapolis serves as a primary geographic anchor for this late 20th-century survey, dividing the industrial and rail-heavy western sectors from the residential expansion in Perry Township. To the west, the footprint of Stout Field (Abandoned) and the Union Stockyards reflect the area's mid-century aviation and agricultural processing history. Significant educational and religious institutions are concentrated to the east, notably Indiana Central College and a high density of parochial schools including St Pauls Sch and St James Sch.

Suburban development is evident through established neighborhoods like Mars Hill, Edgewood, and Homecroft, while the presence of the Hebrew Cemetery and Holy Cross and St Joseph Cemetery provide vital points for genealogical research. The map captures the complex infrastructure of the era, from the sprawling Southern Plaza Shopping Center to the active Conrail lines and numerous gravel pits along the river valley.
