Agricultural fields and drainage networks define this portion of the Missouri Bootheel, centered on the city of Steele. The landscape is etched with precise road grids and critical water management features like Ditch Number 5 and the meandering Pemiscot Bayou. This era shows a well-connected rural economy where small settlements such as Holland, Cooter, and Gibson are linked by a dense network of county roads and the diagonal path of the interstate highway.
