2024 Map of Harvard
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Harvard serves as the primary urban center for this northern Illinois landscape, positioned just south of the Wisconsin-Illinois state line. The city's grid is well-defined by thoroughfares such as N Division St and W Brink St, with local history anchored at sites like Mount Auburn Cem and Saint Joseph Cem. Outside the city, the land transitions into a rolling agricultural expanse marked by the unincorporated community of Alden and the border settlement of Big Foot Prairie. This area is defined by the headwaters of the North Branch Kishwaukee River and Lawrence Creek, which carve gentle drainage patterns across the prairie. The map captures a contemporary snapshot of rural life in McHenry County, showing the enduring locations of family burial grounds like Jerome Cem alongside modern infrastructure such as the Kirkpatrick Airport.
