The American Bottoms flood plain meets the rising bluffs of the Illinoian till plain on this map, documenting a complex landscape of drainage and development. Water management is a primary theme, seen through the Harding Ditch, Canal Number 1, and the significant expanse of Grand Marais Lake. These features reflect long-standing efforts to reclaim the bottomlands for urban and industrial use near East St. Louis and Cahokia Heights.
