About this map

The Missouri River forms the northwestern boundary of this suburban landscape, where the transition from river bottomlands to developed residential communities is marked by Creve Coeur Lake. The map illustrates a dense network of major thoroughfares, including the Maryland Heights Expy and Page Ave, which have shaped the growth of communities such as Maryland Heights, Creve Coeur, and Chesterfield. These arteries connect diverse institutional and local landmarks, from the Missouri Baptist Univ Main Campus in the south to the Lambert-St Louis International Airport cemetery grounds in the northeast.

Local history is preserved in several significant burial sites, including the Fee Fee Cemetery and Mount Lebanon Cemetery in Bridgeton. The map also captures smaller, perhaps lesser-known locales like Vigus, Benbush, and Altheim, providing a detailed look at the suburban expansion of Saint Louis County during the mid-2010s. Waterways like Fee Fee Cr and Deer Cr wind through the neighborhoods, offering a view of the natural drainage patterns that remain amidst the modern pavement.
