2012 Map of Creston

About this map

The village of Creston anchors this landscape of Ogle County, organized around a grid of residential streets including Cederholm St and W N St. This agricultural and educational corridor is defined by its institutions, notably the campus of Kishwaukee College to the east and the aviation facilities at Hendrickson Flying Service Airport. The rural character is punctuated by family-named landmarks and local sites like the Montavon Seed Farm and the historic Woodlawn Cem. Natural drainage is provided by the winding courses of Killbuck Cr and the E Br Killbuck Cr, which cut through the extensive network of township roads. The map also records the industrial presence of the Rochelle Landfill west of the village center, illustrating the modern land use patterns of the early 21st century.
