1961 Map of Platte City
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Platte River meanders through a landscape defined by sharp bluffs and rich bottomlands just before it joins the Missouri River at Delaware Bend. This early 1960s survey documents a region defined by agricultural heritage and river-bound transportation, centered on the historic county seat of Platte City. To the west, the Kansas State Penitentiary Farm occupies a prominent position near the state border, while the tracks of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cut a straight line across the western flats through Beverly and Farley.
