About this map

Long Prairie serves as the focal point of this Todd County landscape, situated along the winding course of the Long Prairie River. The street grid of the city is meticulously detailed, showing the layout of the residential and commercial core along Central Ave and the surrounding neighborhoods. To the north and south, the map documents the community's heritage through the locations of Saint Mary Cem and Long Prairie Cem.

The surrounding terrain is a complex mosaic of glacial water bodies, from the larger Charlotte Lake and Latimer Lake near the city center to more remote waters like Hansman Lake and Felix Lake. The presence of Todd Field to the southwest and the network of local roads like Commerce Rd and Grandview Loop illustrate the modern transportation infrastructure overlaying this watery Minnesota landscape, while Schwanke Cr and Turtle Cr drain the low-lying areas between the numerous lakes.
