About this map

Cedar Rapids and Iowa City anchor this turn-of-the-century landscape, connected by a dense web of steam rail lines that defined Eastern Iowa's early development. The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific R.R. and several other trunk lines, including the Kansas City Line, strike across the prairie to service grain-heavy townships like Florence and Lenox. A distinctive cluster of communal settlements is visible in the west, including Amana, West Amana, High Amana, Middle Amana, and South Amana, situated along the winding course of the Iowa River.
