2017 Map of Lyons

About this map

Lyons serves as the central hub of this Burt County landscape, where the grid of city streets like Main St and Everett St meets the agricultural sections of the surrounding plains. The local geography is defined by the management of water, most notably the winding path of Old Channel Logan Creek and the straighter course of the Logan Creek Dredge, illustrating the long-term modification of the drainage system to support farming. To the north of the town center lies the Lyons Cem, a key landmark for genealogical research. The broader terrain is dissected by the tributaries of S Blackbird Cr and Bell Cr, with a dense network of section-line roads including Co Rd 11 and Co Rd U providing access to the various farmsteads and rural properties established across the township divisions of t23n r8e and t23n r9e.
