About this map

Glenwood City serves as the primary hub of this landscape at the western edge of the St. Croix and Dunn County line. The settlement pattern follows a grid centered on Maple St and Syme Ave, transitioning into a network of section-line roads that define the surrounding dairy and agricultural lands. Water dominates the northern and southern reaches, from the headwaters of Sandy Cr and the waters of Bushy Lake in the north to the recreational area surrounding Glen Lake in the south.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Saint John the Baptist Catholic Cem north of the city center, while the smaller settlements of Emerald and Downing anchor the western and eastern map borders respectively. The drainage of Tiffany Cr and its southern branch, S Tiffany Cr, carves a series of valleys through the terrain, punctuated by several numbered reservoirs that suggest local water management and conservation efforts in the mid-2010s.
