About this map

Illinois River bluffs dominate the eastern margin of this landscape, where the Peoria Heights vicinity meets the river's wide floodplains. During the 1930s, this region north of Peoria was a complex tapestry of agricultural prairie, small rail stops, and early aviation facilities like the Mt Hawley Landing Field and the Peoria Aero Club. Three major railroads — the Chicago and Northwestern, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, and the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific — intersect the landscape, connecting settlements like Dunlap and Edelstein.
