About this map

Lafayette serves as the focal point of this contemporary survey, where the urban grid meets the winding course of the Wabash River and Wildcat Creek. The map documents a complex network of suburban expansion and industrial infrastructure, particularly evident in the growth around Eastwitch and Tecumseh. This area is characterized by a significant concentration of local history markers, including several large cemeteries like Spring Vale Cem and Haven Memorial Park that border the city’s northeastern edge.

Beyond the city limits, the landscape transitions into the agricultural plains of Tippecanoe County, dotted with smaller communities such as Monitor and Buck Creek. The presence of the Wabash Heritage Trl and Prophets Rock Rd near Battle Ground highlights the intersection of modern recreation and established historical corridors. Notable institutions like the Ivy Tech Community College - Lafayette and several drainage systems like Elliott Ditch illustrate the ongoing management of this riverine environment.
