About this map

The Red Lake River meanders sharply through the southern portion of this region, anchoring the city of Crookston as a vital regional hub for education, medicine, and transport in the early 1950s. The city's landscape is defined by institutions such as the University of Minnesota Experimental Station, Mt St Benedict Academy, and the Sunnyrest Sanatorium. The surrounding prairie is meticulously organized into townships like Fanny and Belgium, revealing a dense network of rural infrastructure including the Minakwa Country Club and several schools that were already marked as out of use, such as the Tin Sch.
