2013 Map of Barnes City

About this map

Barnes City and Deep River anchor the agricultural landscape of this Iowa quadrangle, situated at the intersection of several regional drainages. The S English River meanders through the southern half of the territory, joined by the smaller waters of Pleasant Cr, while the namesake Deep River flows across the northern section toward Jordan Cr. This survey illustrates the rigid section-line grid characteristic of the state's rural planning, defined by a dense network of gravel and paved roads such as V18 Rd and Co Hwy V21. The town site of Barnes City shows a compact residential core arranged around Cherry St, Spruce St, and Vine St, reflecting the traditional layout of a small Midwestern farming community in the early 21st century.
