West Morkhom West Markham expanded to four lanes during the last 10 years. When Parkview's first students entered, the only businesses located on Markham were a gas station, the stores around Harry's Market and Markham Plaza. Additions west of Mississippi have included People's Mart with a three story office building, the Safeway and Magic Mart area, Markham Square with ABC Cinema, Sight and Sound and Regan's, Brady Station Post Office, to say nothing of the multitude of service stations that line both sides ,,,.-cil',,f -1 'QT17' flwxw , ..- !7',fgA.l'l .fiiluv -fl ,fp A -4' H,-X-'q.if.:f-1 ilg li!! f N -ST T' ef .3 C.

One memorable addition to the wider street began in 1966 when 1,000 watt mercury vapor lights were installed on both sides of Markham. People who made their homes there, like Donna CaIdwell's family, appeal- ed to the city to cancel the lights on the grounds that they would devalue the property. However, according to Al Maguire, Arkansas Power and Light Company employee, for safety's sake the lights were installed. Branch banking became available with the addition of Union Bank in People's Mart. Then, Worthen Bank went in Weingarten's. The area remained in the news as citizens complained over the propos- ed Ftock Creek development. Its proponents, who included Mayor Mehlburger, The Bailey Corporation and Dan Phillips, said that early professional planning would make its combination business and residential plan one of Little Ftock's finest, although zoning ordinances had to be amended to allow for it. The City Board approved the development which will be west of Shackleford, south from Markham and will cover 140 acres. l. st l.
