2021 Map of Belvidere South

About this map

Belvidere serves as the primary urban center at the northern edge of this landscape, where the street grid around S State St and Whitney Blvd transitions into a heavy industrial and logistics corridor dominated by Chrysler Dr and Corporate Pkwy. Southward, the terrain shifts into the agricultural expanses of Boone County, crossing the border into DeKalb County near the small settlements of Herbert and Colvin Park. This area is defined by a network of rural roads such as Pearl Street Rd and Genoa Rd that connect outlying farms and local airstrips like Untied Acres Airport. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Bloods Point Cem, Shattucks Grove Cem, and Charter Oak Cem, which are scattered throughout the countryside near watercourses like Coon Cr and Kingsbury Cr.
