1968 Map of Poteau East

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Poteau serves as the focal point of this Eastern Oklahoma landscape, positioned at a critical junction of the Kansas City Southern and St. Louis-San Francisco railroads. The town's urban grid, featuring streets like Dewey St and Oklahoma Ave, is bounded by the winding Poteau River and Town Creek. This 1960s survey illustrates a region where industrial infrastructure, such as the Shale Pit and Quarry, exists alongside local landmarks like the Double Branch Ch and High Sch. To the east, the terrain transitions into the named ridges of Kully Chaha and Monroe. The presence of a Beacon and Gaging Sta along the river highlights the importance of aerial and water management in this era of Le Flore County history. Smaller communities like Shady Point and Gilmore dot the surrounding bottomlands and hills, connected by a developing network of state and local routes.
