About this map

St Marys River winds through the heart of this urban landscape, serving as a focal point for the city's extensive park system and early infrastructure. The survey reveals a city in transition, where established neighborhoods like Waynedale and North Highland meet emerging subdivisions such as Indian Village and Covington Dells. Education and community institutions are particularly dense, featuring the Indiana School for Feeble Minded Youth, St Francis College, and the Fort Wayne Bible College. The transport network is anchored by the Norfolk and Western railroad and the historic Leesburg Road. Cultural landmarks including the Johnny Appleseed Memorial Park and St Vincent's Orphan Home reflect the civic character of the era, while several country clubs like Orchard Ridge Country Club mark the expanding suburban fringe.
