About this map

Cedar Falls and the neighboring community of Waterloo Municipal Airport are defined by the winding course of the Cedar River and its various tributaries like Snag Creek and Dry Run. This 2010 topographic record highlights the significant footprint of the University of Northern Iowa and its campus facilities, including the University of Northern Iowa Golf Course. The map captures the distinct residential pockets and industrial sidings that have shaped the urban geography of Black Hawk County, with locations such as North Cedar, Cedar City, and Castle Hill flanking the riverbanks.

Agricultural and community heritage is visible in the northern reaches, where the Antique Acres Show Grounds and several country cemeteries, including Highland Cemetery and Washington Chapel, dot the grid-like road network. The landscape also features extensive recreation areas, from the river-side George Wyth Memorial State Park and Fisher Lake to local greenspaces like the Washington Park Golf Course.
