About this map

The confluence of the Willamette River and McKenzie River anchors this study of the Eugene and Springfield corridor in the early 21st century. The map reveals the dense institutional core of the region, specifically the University of Oregon and Northwest Christian University near the city center. This area is characterized by a high concentration of historic burial grounds, including the Eugene Pioneer Cemetery and Eugene Masonic Cemetery, which serve as vital touchstones for genealogical research.

The landscape is punctuated by distinctive volcanic remnants like Skinner Butte and Gillespie Butte, which have long defined the local topography. Modern infrastructure is represented by a series of specialized crossings such as the Owosso Bike Bridge and Knickerbocker Bike Bridge, reflecting the development of extensive recreational path systems alongside traditional transport routes like the Ferry Street Bridge. Further south, the campus of Lane Community College sits near the winding path of the Coast Fork Willamette River.
