About this map

Mankato and its eastern suburbs are shown here as they appeared in 2019, revealing the dense institutional and residential expansion across the Blue Earth County landscape. The map highlights major educational hubs like Minnesota State University-Mankato and Bethany Lutheran College, alongside the industrial and commercial infrastructure of Benning and Knollwood Park. To the east, the city of Eagle Lake sits between Eagle Lake and Albert Lake, marking the transition from urban density to the lake-strewn plains of the Minnesota interior.

Genealogists can find numerous burial sites, including Sugar Grove Cem, Bochland Cem, and the Old Masonic Cem. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Le Sueur River and the deep cut of Thompson Ravine, while the Mankato Regional Airport occupies a broad plateau to the northeast. This detailed record tracks the modern footprint of a regional center, from the development around Crystal Cir to the surrounding rural townships.
