About this map

Des Moines sits at the confluence of the Des Moines River and Raccoon River, serving as a massive railroad hub in the early 1900s. The city's growth is marked by established neighborhoods like Highland Park and Easton Place, while the outlying areas are defined by a dense network of country schools such as Red Brick School, McDivitt Grove School, and Prairie Green School.
