About this map

The settlement of Brooklyn serves as the focal point of this Poweshiek County survey, where the town grid is bounded by Big Bear Creek to the north and Little Bear Creek to the south. Historically significant burial sites are scattered throughout the surrounding townships, including Calvary Cem, the International Order of Odd Fellows Cem, and the more remote Lytle Cem tucked near Dugout Cr.

The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with Cub Cr and the North English River carving through the southern half of the quadrangle. Modern land use is evidenced by the Skydive Iowa Airport located east of the main settlement. This layout illustrates the transition from traditional Iowa farmstead parcels and township lines, such as t80n r14w, to contemporary regional infrastructure and local transportation routes like Old 6 Rd and Co Hwy F46.
