About this map

Bird Creek meanders across the northern half of this landscape, carving through terrain marked by Hooper Hill and Round Mountain. In the mid-1950s, this area northeast of Tulsa shows a transition from rural townships like Lynn Lane and Dawson toward industrial and infrastructure expansion. The western edge is dominated by aviation, featuring the Tulsa Municipal Airport and a separate Landing Field, while the Young Airport sits further south.

Heavy industry and transport are evident in the numerous quarries and the intersection of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and St Louis San Francisco railroads. Local social life is grounded in landmarks such as Plainview Ch, East Central Sch, and the Indian Hills Country Club. The settlement of Catoosa sits near the eastern boundary, while smaller communities like Mingo and Garnett are connected by established thoroughfares including Admiral Place and Pine Street.
