2018 Map of Sand Springs

About this map

Tulsa and Sand Springs define this modern landscape where the Arkansas River bends through the southern half of the quadrangle. The map details the transition from the densely gridded streets of West Tulsa to the residential expansion and rugged terrain around Holmes Peak. Significant water features include Sand Springs Lake and several smaller tributaries like Bigheart Cr and Shell Cr, which drain into the main river channel. Smaller historically named locales such as Kengle, Gray, and Price appear along the river and rail corridors. For genealogists and local researchers, several burial grounds are preserved in this survey, including Woodland Cem in the city and the more isolated Hellard Cem further north. The infrastructure of the Bnsf railroad and major highways like the Gilcrease Expy show the late-stage development of this industrial and residential hub.
