About this map

The Missouri River corridor in central North Dakota reveals a landscape of deep historical significance and mid-century industrial expansion. This 1960s survey documents the juxtaposition of preserved frontier history at Fort Mandan Historic Site and Fort Clark Historic Site against a modernizing energy infrastructure. Near the confluence with the Knife River, an extensive industrial complex has taken shape, featuring a Powerplant, Substation, and large Settling Ponds. Local transport and industry are further marked by the Northern Pacific railroad line and a series of Gravel Pits along the river bluffs. Small family landmarks like Basto Cem and Alderin Cem remain on the higher ground, while the Trailer Park near the river bend suggests the mobile workforce associated with the area's development during this era.
