About this map

The White River and its intricate network of drainage ditches and creeks, such as Mars Ditch and Haueisen Ditch, define the landscape south of downtown Indianapolis. This detailed survey captures the residential expansion and suburban identity of southern Marion County, where established neighborhoods like Mars Hill and Maywood sit alongside institutional landmarks. Notable sites include the Lincoln Coll of Technology and several large burial grounds, such as Calvary Cem and the Hebrew Cem.

Industrial and transport corridors are prominent, with the Indianapolis Belt RR and major interstates like I-465 intersecting the terrain. Moving south toward the Johnson County line, the map transitions into communities like Glenns Valley and Greenwood, showing the proximity of early 21st-century development to historic cemeteries like Mount Pleasant Cem. This documentation of the area’s hydrology and suburban layout is an essential resource for tracing the evolution of these southern townships.
