1962 Map of Newport

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Newport serves as the focal point of this early 1960s survey, situated along a sharp bend in the White River. The city’s development is clearly defined by its street grid, including Front St and Walnut St, and its reliance on the Missouri Pacific railroad. The surrounding bottomlands are heavily defined by water, with numerous oxbows and sloughs like Eagle Lake, Vance Lake, and Bee Lake indicating the river's historical shifts. Educational and social infrastructure is well-documented, featuring schools such as Branch High Sch and Albright Sch, alongside the Harris Hospital and the Jackson County Courthouse.
