About this map

The western edges of Shenandoah anchor this late-1970s survey, where the developing city meets the agricultural heart of the Fremont and Page County border. The local economy and infrastructure are clearly defined by the confluence of the Nishnabotna River and major rail lines, including the Norfolk and Western and Burlington Northern corridors. This period captures the town's expansion with residential features like the Trailer Park and educational facilities such as the Lowell Ave Sch.

Beyond the urban limits, the landscape transitions into the rolling terrain of Walnut and Monroe townships, bisected by Walnut Creek and Honey Creek. Cultural and recreational markers of the era are well-preserved here, ranging from the Mt Calvary Cem at the northern Imogene Corporate Boundary to the southern Drive-in Theater and Municipal Airport. The presence of the Radio Tower (KFNF) stands as a notable landmark for those tracing local communications history.
