2013 Map of Burchinal

About this map

Burchinal remains the central settlement in this portion of Cerro Gordo County, surrounded by a structured grid of rural roads named for native birds and local flora. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Beaverdam Cr, which meanders through the eastern and southern sections of the quadrangle. In the center, Zerbel Slough occupies a low-lying area west of Indigo Ave, illustrating the glacial topography of northern Iowa. The road network is heavily influenced by modern thoroughfares, including the intersection of Interstate 35 and U.S. Highway 18 in the northwest, which provides a contrast to the secondary local roads like Mallard Ave and Killdeer Ave. This survey records the rural layout of the region, where residential clusters are primarily concentrated along the intersection of 210th St and 1st St.
