About this map

The Willamette River and Santiam River converge in this 2017 landscape, defining the agricultural and urban boundaries of Albany and its neighboring communities. The city's growth is framed by its proximity to the water, with North Albany situated across the river and the satellite settlements of Millersburg and Draperville extending into the surrounding plains. Notable landmarks such as Albany Municipal Airport and Timber-Linn Memorial Park highlight the modern layout of the region.

Genealogists and local historians will find several established burial grounds across the quadrangle, including Waverly Memorial Cem, Riverside Cem, and the Masonic Cem. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations like Knox Butte, Scravel Hill, and Hale Butte, which rise above the river valleys. The intricate network of waterways, including Periwinkle Cr and the Cala pooya River, illustrates the complex drainage of the Willamette Valley floor.
