2016 Map of Cable

About this map

The settlement of Cable serves as a central landmark in this 2016 survey of the area southeast of St. Cloud, where the Benton Co Sherburne Co line divides the landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of wetlands and drainage features, including County Ditch Number Five and the winding course of the Elk River and Mayhew Cr. Genealogists and local historians will find significant sites such as Saint Patrick's Cem and the Minnesota Reformatory Cem, the latter situated near the Jail Trail. The presence of the St Cloud Regional Airport dominates the central portion of the map, illustrating the intersection of modern infrastructure with the rural township grids of Minden Twp 9 and Minden Twp 8. Residential growth is evident along corridors like Wapicada Rd and Shadowwood Dr NE as the region transitions from agricultural use.
