1964 Map of Shawnee

About this map

The Kansas River carves a deep arc through this mid-1960s landscape, serving as a corridor for the Union Pacific and Atchison Topeka And Santa Fe railroads. The topography reveals a dense suburban expansion south of the river, where the communities of Shawnee, Merriam, and Overland Park are clearly delineated by an emerging grid of residential streets and schools like Hickory Grove Sch. Major infrastructure projects including the Kansas Turnpike and Interstate 635 cut through older sections of Kansas City and Argentine, reflecting the era's focus on highway connectivity.
