About this map

Eden Prairie and its surrounding suburban landscapes are defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and the broad valley of the Minnesota River. This late-era survey captures the transition from open natural spaces to organized recreation and transportation hubs. Large-scale regional attractions such as Valleyfair Amusement Park, Canterbury Park, and the Braemer Golf Course dominate the southern and eastern portions of the map.

Historically significant points such as Murphy's Landing and Bloomington Ferry indicate the river's long-standing role in local transit, even as the Flying Cloud Airport represents modern aviation infrastructure. Several burial grounds, including the Eden Prairie Cemetery and Glendale Cemetery, provide essential anchor points for genealogists tracing the early settlement of Glendale and Barden. The terrain is characterized by numerous water bodies like Staring Lake and Anderson Lakes, which are interspersed with residential developments and major highway corridors.
