University Heights and the western expansion of Iowa City define this early 21st-century landscape, where academic, residential, and recreational spaces converge. The Iowa River flows through the heart of the area, dammed to create Coralville Lake and the adjacent Devonian Fossil Gorge. The map documents a highly developed suburban and institutional corridor, including the Oakdale campus and the historic enclave of Vernon. Large-scale public facilities such as the Iowa City Municipal Airport and the Johnson County Fairgrounds occupy the southern reaches, while the central landscape is punctuated by academic athletics and leisure sites like Finkbine Golf Course. This survey captures the complex drainage network of Clear Cr and Muddy Cr as they navigate through the dense grid of a modern university town.
