2015 Map of Lisbon

About this map

The town of Lisbon and the northern outskirts of Morris anchor this prairie landscape along the Kendall Co and Grundy Co line. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural grid punctuated by small settlements like Central and Saratoga. A major industrial and historical corridor defines the southern portion of the map, where the Illinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor runs parallel to Interstate 80. Local history is well-preserved through numerous burial grounds, including the Munger Cem, Cryder Cem, and Catholic North Cem. The landscape also features significant water management and infrastructure, from the large Collins Cooling Pond to the Morris Municipal Airport - James R. Washburn Field, reflecting the transition from traditional farming to modern industrial and transportation utility.
