About this map

The Arkansas River defines the southwestern corner of this urban and suburban landscape, anchoring the bustling city of Tulsa as it expands northward and eastward. This survey captures the dense residential and industrial grid that characterizes communities like East Tulsa, Dawson, and Mohawk. A significant portion of the northern area is dedicated to infrastructure and public works, dominated by the Tulsa International Airport and the waters of Lake Yahola, which is secured by the Yahola Dam.

Educational and cultural landmarks are prominently featured, including the sprawling campus of the University of Tulsa and the Tulsa State Fairground. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map provides precise locations for significant burial grounds such as Rose Hill Cemetery and Oaklawn Cemetery. The drainage patterns of Bird Creek and Coal Creek meander through the northern reaches, illustrating the balance between the developed metro area and the remaining natural waterways.
