2017 Map of Brooklyn

About this map

Brooklyn sits at the intersection of a complex drainage system in northwestern Missouri, where the meandering paths of W Fork Big Cr and Shain Cr converge. The landscape is defined by the sharp relief of these creek valleys, which have shaped the local road network into a rigid grid of numeric avenues and streets, including W 180th St and W 220th St. This 2017 survey reflects the persistent rural character of Harrison County, documented through small family and community burial grounds such as Allen Cem and Buntin Cem. Several localized water bodies, including Anderson Lake, Hintz Lake, and Craig Lake, are distributed across the township sections, suggesting a history of agricultural water management and recreation within the drainage basins of Little Cr and its various forks.
