The Mississippi River serves as the central artery dividing the dense urban grids of St Louis, Missouri, from the industrial corridors and residential pockets of Illinois. This 1993 revision, based on surveys dating back to 1929, illustrates the complex infrastructure of East St Louis and Cahokia. Notable for its genealogical value, the map identifies local landmarks such as Holy Family Cem and the Bohnemeier Cem. The landscape transitions from the historic Lafayette Park and Tower Grove Park in the west to the quarrying operations near Falling Spring and the rail-heavy environment of Dupo. Large-scale features like Arsenal Island and Dead Creek highlight the persistent influence of the river geography on the regional development of St. Clair County.
