About this map

The Fox River serves as the central artery for this portion of the Fox River Valley, connecting a chain of riverside communities including South Elgin, St. Charles, and Geneva. The landscape reflects a dense suburban evolution, where historic landmarks like the Kane County Courthouse and the unique architecture of Dunham Castle stand alongside modern developments. In the river itself, distinctive landforms such as Five Island Park and Boy Scout Island illustrate the braided nature of the waterway as it moves south through Kane County.

Local history is well-preserved through numerous burial grounds, including Oak Hill Cem, Westside Cem, and Little Woods Cem, which dot the terrain alongside major transportation corridors like Army Trail Rd and Roosevelt Rd. The eastern edge of the survey transitions toward the Dupage Airport and the Cook and DuPage county lines, marking the intersection of the river valley's older settlements with the expanding infrastructure of the Chicago metropolitan region.
