1970 Map of McCook West

About this map

Mc Cook serves as the focal point for this survey, showcasing the urban development of Red Willow County during the 1970s and early 1980s. The city's social infrastructure is well-defined, featuring the St Catherines Hosp, the Special Education Center, and several local campuses including Central Sch and North Ward Sch. Outside the city limits, the rural landscape is defined by the Republican River and a complex network of irrigation infrastructure such as the Meeker Driftwood Canal and West Driftwood Canal. This system of canals and siphons illustrates the intensive agricultural engineering required in the High Plains. To the west, the settlement of Perry sits along the Burlington Northern railroad, while numerous gravel pits and Sandpits mark the industrial activity along the river valley. Genealogists can find localized landmarks like Calvary Cem and remote country schools such as School No 23 and School No 16.
