2013 Map of Corning South

About this map

Corning serves as the northern anchor of this landscape, where the E Nodaway River flows past the Adams County Fairgrounds and the nearby Adams County Speedway. The geography is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the curiously named W Fork One Hundred and Two River and its companion, the W Br One Hundred and Two River, which carve their way south toward the boundary at Adams-Taylor St. Small settlements like Mercer and Holt punctuate the rural sections, connected by a grid of agricultural roads such as Mulberry Ave and Orange Ave. The mapping of small tributaries like Willow Cr, Lonzo Cr, and Rose Br provides an intricate look at the local drainage patterns that have shaped land use and property boundaries in this part of southwestern Iowa for generations.
