About this map

The Cedar River winds through the heart of Charles City, serving as the primary geographic focal point for this Iowa community. The river is spanned by notable crossings including the Suspension Bridge and Brantingham Bridge, connecting the established street grid and the outlying residential developments like Maywood and Oak Park. The surrounding landscape transitions quickly from the urban core to the agricultural fields of Floyd County, where smaller settlements such as Floyd Crossing and Doubleday are located along the section-line road network.

Outdoor and community spaces are well-documented, featuring the Wildwood Golf Course near the river’s bend and the Cedar Springs Wesleyan Camp further south. To the southeast, the terrain becomes more defined by smaller watercourses like Bloody Run and Gizzard Cr. This survey illustrates the modern layout of the city, balancing municipal growth with the preservation of recreation areas like Camp Christie and Cedar Bend Golf Course.
