1973 Map of Essex
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Kankakee River winds through the northeastern corner of this Kankakee County landscape, providing a sharp contrast to the industrial and agricultural patterns that dominate the rest of the quadrangle. The village of Essex serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller settlements like Godley, Torino, and the site of Clarke City. A significant portion of the western terrain is defined by large-scale earthworks and water features, likely associated with the region's strip-mining history, which has reshaped the natural drainage of Granary Creek.
