About this map

Cedar Rapids and its northern suburbs are meticulously detailed in this survey, showcasing the urban expansion through Hiawatha, Robins, and Marion. The landscape is a mix of dense residential grids and significant local institutions, such as Mount Mercy University, bordered by the winding course of the Cedar River. For those researching family history, the map provides precise locations for several regional burying grounds, including Dunkard Cem, Squires Cem, and the expansive Cedar Memorial Park Cem.

Transport corridors like the Cedar Valley Nature Trl and the Cedar River Trl follow former rail lines and riverbanks, reflecting the transition of the area's infrastructure from industrial to recreational use. Rural pockets persist near Toddville and Midway, where the terrain is marked by tributaries like W Otter Creek and E Otter Creek, offering a clear view of how the modern metropolitan footprint interfaces with the traditional Iowan countryside.
