1975 Map of Mc Almont

About this map

North Little Rock and the burgeoning industrial and residential corridors of Pulaski County are revealed in striking detail through this 1975 orthophotomosaic. Unlike a traditional line-and-symbol map, this aerial perspective captures the actual physical footprint of the landscape just as the suburban expansion toward Jacksonville was accelerating. The imagery highlights the massive alluvial bends and oxbow patterns of the river valley, providing a stark contrast between the dense street grids of the city and the complex, scoured agricultural lands to the east. By documenting the exact position of structures and infrastructure at Mc Almont, the map provides a clear record of land use before subsequent decades of development altered the outskirts of the state capital.
