2015 Map of Fort Madison

About this map

Fort Madison dominates the southern portion of this map, situated along the northern banks of the Mississippi River and the expansive Lake Keokuk. The city's layout is defined by a rigorous grid of avenues, stretching from the riverfront up toward Denmark Hilltop. This 2015 survey reveals a significant concentration of burial sites and institutional land use, including the Iowa State Prison Cem and the Fort Madison City Cem, reflecting the town's long-established role as a regional hub. North of the city, the landscape transitions into the agricultural terrain of Lee County, where the small community of Denmark is located along Houston Ave and Academy Ave. The rural areas are marked by numerous family and community grounds, such as the Jones Cem and Mothershed Cem, interspersed among the drainage basins of Lost Cr and Devil Cr.
