About this map

Buck Cr and Sugar Cr define the drainage of this suburban landscape southeast of Indianapolis during the early 21st century. The map reveals a dense network of residential subdivisions and historical crossroads, where established communities like Acton and New Palestine meet newer developments such as Schildmeier Park and Brookville Heights. Transportation corridors dominate the layout, with major thoroughfares bisecting the terrain and connecting these growing residential hubs.

Recreational and utility features appear throughout the area, including the Whispering Hills Golf Course near Julietta and the Camp Sertoma grounds. In the southwestern corner, the Marshall Field Airport serves as a distinct landmark near the winding path of Maze Cr. The variety of named waterways, from Wildcat Brook to the Mulliner Ditch, highlights the sophisticated drainage systems required for the region's transition from agriculture to modern suburban expansion.
