2019 Map of Austin East

About this map

The Cedar River corridor and its surrounding tributaries dictate the geography of Mower County in this modern topographic survey. The city of Austin dominates the southwest quadrant, showing a dense street grid that extends toward several smaller satellite communities, including Mapleview, Ramsey, and the residential pocket of Austin Acres. This era of the landscape is defined by the convergence of major waterways like Turtle Cr and Wolf Cr with developed infrastructure, evidenced by the Austin Municipal Airport and the preserved Historic Roosevelt Bridge over the river. For those tracing family histories or local development, the map identifies several significant burial grounds, from the large Oakwood Cem and Calvary Cem within the city limits to the northern Lansing Cem near the town of Lansing. The eastern portion of the quadrangle transitions into a more rural grid, connecting the city to Brownsdale and Nicolville via an extensive network of county highways and roads.
