2010 Map of Columbus

About this map

The Columbus city center and its surrounding residential neighborhoods appear in high detail during the early 21st century, showing a landscape defined by the convergence of major waterways and expanding infrastructure. The confluence of the Flatrock River and the Driftwood River gives way to the East Fork White River, which carves south through the center of the sheet. To the west, the landscape transitions from urban grid to water management and recreation around Terrace Lake, Crystal Lake, and Wood Lake. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several established burial grounds, including Garland Brook Cemetery near East Columbus and the Thompson Cemetery to the south. The layout of the modern city is further shaped by specialized sites like the Bartholomew County Hospital Airport and smaller surrounding communities such as Garden City, Walesboro, and Bethel Village.
