Overall, a multitude of arrangements and amenities changed the city's landscape in aforementioned fifty-year period. In 1970 the pueblo consisted on a wide forest landscape with a large farmland and only few constructions especially 2 houses and one shop. However, springer town did dramatically change throughout years. Indeed, we notice that diverse facilities were developed at the expense of the wide forest. A school has been raised at the center town with lots of shops all around. At the top right-hand corner, an airport has been constructed, near a small portion of forest and some flats at the top of the shops. In addition, the huge farmland has been restricted to a small area in order to allow place to some appartements and a house lift up. It has also been a surge in quantity of arteries between buildings than the 1970’s model. Even though, we can still notice some green spaces from the past forest, especially a band of Greenland alongside- the west town. To conclude, the town of springer changed drastically from 1970 to nowadays, moving from a rural to an urban area.
