About this map

Bloomington and Normal anchor the northeast corner of this 1981 survey, where the burgeoning urban grid meets the agricultural expanse of McLean County. The map documents a critical period of infrastructure growth, notably the interchange of the Illinois Central Gulf and Norfolk and Western railroads alongside major highway developments. Beyond the city limits, the landscape is defined by traditional township boundaries like Dale and Dry Grove, where smaller communities such as Shirley and Covell maintain their identity amidst the rolling fields.
