1962 Map of Muncie East

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The White River and Prairie Creek Reservoir anchor this 1962 revision, illustrating the eastward expansion of Muncie and the surrounding township structures. Suburban growth is evident in residential developments like Indian Village, Echo Heights, and Mayfield, which contrast with the industrial and transit-heavy sectors defined by the New York Central and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads. The map records a dense network of local education and social infrastructure, including Kuhner Jr High Sch and several neighborhood cemeteries such as Bortsfield Cem and White Cem. Outside the urban center, the landscape remains focused on resource extraction and leisure, marked by numerous Oil Wells and the Delaware Country Club. This document captures the transition between Muncie's industrial heritage and the developing recreational and residential spaces of eastern Delaware County.
