2013 Map of Belle Plaine
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
The Iowa River winds through the southern reaches of this Benton County landscape, creating a complex system of bends and floodplains near Belle Plaine. This settlement serves as a regional hub where the grid of the town meets the arterial routes of 21st St and 10th Avenue Dr. North of the city, the terrain is defined by a series of north-south waterways including Salt Creek, Hog Run, and the uniquely named Plague Mine Creek, which carve their paths through a strictly surveyed agricultural grid. Small rural clusters like Irving punctuate the landscape, connected by a network of gravel and paved roads such as 310 St and X Ave. The presence of the Belle Plaine Municipal Airport south of the main town area indicates the modern logistical role this Iowa community plays within the larger river valley economy.
