2013 Map of Mackey

About this map

The small settlement of Mackey sits at the intersection of 130th St and V Ave, anchoring a rural landscape defined by the winding path of Squaw Cr. In this early 21st-century survey of Boone County, the agricultural grid is etched with precision, punctuated by the northward community of Griffen. This area showcases a series of critical stream crossings, most notably the Squaw Creek Bridge and Squaw Creek Bridge Two, which facilitate travel across the local drainage network. Further south, the map details the headwaters and tributaries of Montgomery Cr and Prairie Cr as they cut through the farmland. The naming of thoroughfares like Inkpaduta Ave and Lakins Grove Ave provides a window into the historical naming conventions of the Iowa countryside, preserved even as modern infrastructure maintains the region's productive character.
