Here’s something for you local history buffs. After celebrating its town centennial last year, Highland Park is continuing to add to its archives.

RLG Consulting Engineers will present the town with an original 1914 plat map at its council meeting on Monday. The map displays the original divisions of land within the Highland Park boundaries.

It was originally drawn for Flippen-Prather Realty by the firm of Myers and Noyes, which was founded in the early 1900s by two engineers originally from Kansas. Raymond L. Goodson was a Myers and Noyes engineer who purchased the firm’s files when he started RLG in 1953.
