1978 Map of Red Oak North

About this map

The East Nishnabotna River flows through the heart of Montgomery County, providing a natural corridor for the Burlington Northern railroad in this late 1970s topographical record. The city of Red Oak anchors the southern portion of the map, showing a dense grid of infrastructure including the Murphy Mem Hosp, several local schools like Washington Sch and Webster Sch, and the expansive Evergreen Cem. The map illustrates a rural landscape transitioning into an organized municipal center, where the river's path is managed by a Floodgate and a local Waterworks facility.
