1980 Map of Lincoln West

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Lincoln and its western rural stretches are defined by a network of waterways including Kickapoo Creek, Sugar Creek, and Salt Creek. The landscape transition from the town's expanding residential grid to the surrounding townships of Orvil, Sheridan, and West Lincoln is marked by a mix of civic institutions and industrial utility. The Lincoln Gas Storage Area and various gravel pits and quarries contrast with recreational spaces like Railsplitter State Park and Memorial Park. For local history researchers, the map reveals numerous family and community burial grounds such as Musick Cem, Rimerman Cem, and Union Cemetery. Infrastructure of the late 20th century is well-documented, from the Illinois Central Gulf railroad line to the Lincoln Development Center and local schools like Melrose Park Sch.
