2021 Map of Bloomington East

About this map

Bloomington and Normal anchor this landscape, showcasing the dense street grids and institutional landmarks of central Illinois. The campus of Illinois Wesleyan University occupies a prominent position near the urban center, while the Central Illinois Regional Airport at Bloomington-Normal defines the eastern periphery with its extensive runways and facilities. Beyond the city limits, the terrain transitions to a rural pattern characterized by small named clusters and numerous cemeteries. Genealogy researchers will find several burial grounds such as Evergreen Memorial Cem, Bishop Cem, and Diamond Grove Cem. The map tracks the winding course of Little Kickapoo Cr and Sugar Cr as they move through both developed neighborhoods and open fields. Transit routes and rail lines connect outlying points like Hendrix, Gillum, and Downs, reflecting the regional network that supported these agricultural and commuter communities.
