1969 Map of Stuttgart North

About this map

The northern reaches of Stuttgart dominate this late 1960s survey, revealing a landscape defined by the intersection of aviation, industry, and the natural waterways of the Grand Prairie. Both the Stuttgart Municipal Airport and the smaller Dockery Airfield underscore the region's importance to agriculture and commerce during this era. The terrain is crisscrossed by a network of drainage flumes and irrigation features, including several large reservoirs and fish ponds, which support the intensive cultivation typical of the Arkansas delta.
