2010 Map of Lime Springs

About this map

Lime Springs and Chester anchor this Howard County landscape in the early 2000s, where the rural grid is defined by a dense network of numbered streets and named avenues. The northern section is dominated by the Upper Iowa River as it winds past the Chester Post Office, while the central region is marked by the historical Lidtke Mill situated along the same riverbanks near Lime Springs. This area showcases the hydrology of northern Iowa, with the headwaters of the Turkey River system—including the North Branch Turkey River and West Branch Turkey River—emerging in the southern half of the quadrangle.
