2011 Map of George

About this map

George sits at the intersection of local industry and highway transit in this early 21st-century portrait of the Columbia Basin. The town's grid is clearly defined by fruit-themed and presidential thoroughfares like Royal Anne Ave, Bing Ave, and Washington Way, reflecting the region’s agricultural roots and the unique nomenclature of the settlement. To the northeast, George Lake and Martha Lake provide small blue breaks in a landscape dominated by a vast network of irrigation-fed fields and rural section roads. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the steady rise of Frenchman Hills Rd, where the terrain begins to shift away from the flat, cultivated basin floor. Further west, the small settlement of Burke marks an older point of transit near the junction of Beverly Burke Rd and the interstate frontage system.
