2010 Map of Arkdale NW

About this map

Petenwell Lake dominates this central Wisconsin landscape, where the Wisconsin River was harnessed to create one of the state's largest reservoirs. Along the eastern shoreline, the settlement of New Rome sits near the confluence of Fourteenmile Creek, reflecting the area's development into a recreational and residential hub by the early 21st century. The map reveals a transition from the structured grid of rural roads like County Line Rd and 20th Ave N to the more organic residential street patterns bordering the water, such as Archer Ave and Feather Trl. To the north, Greenwood Cemetery and the Cranberry Rock Lookout Tower provide fixed historical points of reference amidst a landscape shaped by hydraulic engineering. Landforms like Yellow Banks and Halls Point offer clues to the original river channel's topography before the basin was flooded.
