1986 Map of North Little Rock

About this map

Camp Joseph T Robinson dominates the northern landscape of this mid-1980s survey, illustrating the extensive military and aviation footprint in Pulaski County. The map details the transition from the rolling hills of Purdham Hill and Crystal Hill down to the Arkansas River, where the Murray Lock and Dam and Murray Lake define the waterway's navigation. Urban expansion is evident in the dense residential grids of North Little Rock and Little Rock, punctuated by specialized institutions like St Josephs Orphanage, Arkansas School for Blind, and Shorter College. Transportation corridors are anchored by the Missouri Pacific railroad and the North Little Rock Municipal Airport. From the established community of Cammack Village to the rural outskirts of Marche, the sheet captures a region balancing significant public infrastructure, such as Burns Park, with historical local landmarks like Palestine Cem.
