2012 Map of Cordova

About this map

The Mississippi River serves as the central artery for this riverfront landscape, dividing the settlements of Cordova and Princeton. On the western banks, the Princeton State Wildlife Management Area dominates the lowlands where the Wapsipinicon River and Rock Cr converge near Adams Island. The intricate network of waterways including Lost Cr and Bud Cr defines the local drainage, while the rural upland areas are dotted with family and municipal burial grounds such as Nowlin Cem, Oak Ridge Cem, and Baker Cem. This 2012 survey illustrates the intersection of recreation and industry, showing facilities like the Cordova Dragway, The Sandbox Airport, and Olathea Golf Course. Farther north, the small community of Folletts sits near the rail and road crossings that have historically connected these river towns.
