About this map

The Canadian River forms the central spine of this landscape, marking a winding boundary between Grady and Canadian counties. Along its northern banks, the southern reaches of Oklahoma City and Union City expand toward the water, while the town of Tuttle anchors the southern side of the valley. This mid-1960s perspective captures the area's transition into a more structured municipal layout, yet it remains deeply connected to its agricultural and industrial roots.

Logistics and industry define the terrain, with the Burlington Northern railroad cutting through the river valley near Waldron. Local resource extraction is evident through scattered features like a prominent Oil Well and several Gravel Pit sites. For those tracing family histories, the map identifies several burial grounds, including Riverside Cem near the river and a Cemetery further south, providing essential landmarks for the rural communities surrounding the growing urban centers.
