About this map

Duluth International Airport dominates the northern landscape of this modern survey, surrounded by the evolving residential and industrial corridors of Hermantown and Duluth Heights. The map reveals a high concentration of community landmarks, including Saint Paul Church and several distinct burial grounds such as the Jewish Cem and Sunrise Memorial Cem. To the south, the industrial and transport history of the region is evident at Missabe Junction and along the BNSF Railway, where the terrain drops toward the harbor area.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with numerous small waterways like Miller Cr, Chester Cr, and the Midway River carving through the suburban development. Higher education is represented by Lake Superior Coll, while the northern edge is anchored by the Wild Rice Lake Reservoir. This map serves as a detailed record of the contemporary balance between rapid infrastructure and the preserved natural drainage systems of the Saint Louis County heights.
