About this map

The eastern edges of Columbia meet the rolling drainages of Cedar Creek in this late 1960s survey of the central Missouri landscape. This era captures the significant infrastructure of Interstate 70 cutting through the countryside, flanked by rural settlements like Shaw, Stephens, and Lindbergh. The map provides a detailed view of local community hubs, including Manacle Chapel and the Prairie Grove Ch, alongside family-named landmarks such as the Allen Cem and Hamilton Cem.

Industry and conservation efforts mark the terrain, from the extractive footprints of several Strip Mines in the northeast to the sprawling Little Dixie State Wildlife Management Area surrounding Little Dixie Lake. Waterways define the topography, with Grindstone Creek and Bonne Femme Creek carving through the landscape, while the Forest Hill Country Club and various Sewage Disposal Ponds signal the urban expansion creeping eastward from the city center.
