2015 Map of Macon East

About this map

The settlement of Macon anchors the western edge of this central Illinois landscape, where a grid of rural routes like Corinthwaite Rd and Riley Rd segments the agricultural plains. The terrain is subtly shaped by the winding paths of several waterways, including Finley Creek and Long Grove Creek, which cut gentle depressions through the farmland. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Macon Co / Shelby Co line marks a significant administrative boundary near the Long Grove Cem. A notable localized landmark is the Hilvety Airport, reflecting the region's reliance on small-scale aviation for agricultural or private use. Family-named roads such as Gordon Rd and Hopewell Rd suggest the enduring presence of local heritage and longtime landownership across these townships.
