2016 Map of Sugar City

About this map

Lake Meredith dominates the central landscape of this Crowley County quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the region's complex water management system. The map captures the engineered hydrology necessary for High Plains agriculture, featuring the Sugar City Lateral, the Lake Meredith Inlet, and the E Ordway Lateral which distribute water across the arid terrain. The settlement of Sugar City is depicted with its grid of streets including Railroad Ave and W Buffalo Ave, situated just east of the Lakeview Cem. To the west, the edge of Ordway appears near the Ordway Town Reservoir. This 2016 survey illustrates how the local economy remains tied to irrigation and rail access, with the town footprints closely following the established tracks and ditch lines that have defined these communities for generations.
