1948 Map of South Fort Smith

About this map

The Arkansas River and Poteau River define this borderland landscape, where industrial expansion meets the foothills of the Ouachita Mountains. Urban development in South Fort Smith is captured at a point of significant growth, with 1970s revisions showing the spreading footprint of residential streets and the Fort Smith Municipal Airport. The industrial character of the era is evident through a strip mine, a saw mill, and a conveyor belt system near the rail lines.
