The Grand River bisects this urban landscape, serving as a central geographical feature that separates Walker and Grandville from the core of Grand Rapids. This 2019 survey captures a modern metropolitan region densely packed with civic and educational institutions, including the Grand Valley State University Downtown Campus and the Kent County Courthouse. The map is particularly notable for its concentration of historic burial grounds, such as Saints Peter and Paul's Lithuanian Catholic Cem, Mount Calvary Cem, and Greenwood Cem, which provide significant data points for genealogical research. The expansion of the city is evident in the residential developments surrounding Wyoming and Kentwood, while recreational corridors like the Ken-O-Sha Trail follow the path of Plaster Cr through the southern suburbs.
