About this map

The Arkansas River and Little Arkansas River converge near the heart of a rapidly maturing industrial and educational hub during the early 1940s. This survey illustrates a dense urban grid expanding eastward toward the smaller enclave of Eastborough, while established institutions like Wichita University and Friends University anchor the city's intellectual life. The landscape is deeply influenced by its position as a major railroad crossroads, with the St Louis San Francisco and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe lines intersecting near Union Station.
