2021 Map of Jefferson City

About this map

The Missouri River carves a wide path through the center of this 2021 study, separating the seat of state government from the northern floodplains of Callaway Co. In Jefferson City, the landscape is dominated by institutional landmarks such as Lincoln University, the Supreme Court of Missouri, and the Cole County Courthouse. The urban center gives way to a complex series of ridges and hollows to the south and west, including Frog Hollow and Diamond Ridge, where the terrain begins its descent toward the winding Moreau River. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of the capital's historic core to the expansive Jefferson City Memorial Airport and the recreational Katy Trl on the northern bank. Researchers can identify numerous family and community burial grounds, from the centrally located Saint Peters Cem Number 1 to the more outlying Rouschelback Cem near Wardsville.
