About this map

Hastings serves as the focal point of this west-side survey, revealing the urban expansion and institutional layout of the city in the early 2020s. The map captures critical local landmarks including the Adams County Courthouse and the Creighton University College of Nursing, alongside the residential and commercial street grid that extends toward the Hastings Municipal Airport. Outside the city center, the community of Ingleside sits near the tracks of the BNSF Railway, which remains a dominant industrial corridor through the Nebraska landscape.

The surrounding rural landscape is defined by a sophisticated water management system, featuring the Hueske Reservoir, Wright Reservoir, and Trausch Bros Reservoir. These man-made bodies, along with Thirtytwo Mile Creek and its branches, illustrate the agricultural dependency on water storage in Adams County. To the south, Haymeadow Ridge provides a subtle break in the terrain, while the course of Pawnee Creek meanders through the township sections, marking the traditional drainage patterns of the Great Plains.
