About this map

Napoleon occupies the southeastern corner of this Logan County landscape, serving as a hub for the surrounding prairie. The town's grid is well-defined by streets such as Broadway and Lake Ave E, with community sites like the Napoleon Cem and Saint Philips Cem situated on the eastern outskirts. The map illustrates a classic section-line road network, where routes like 55th St SE and 26th Ave SE carve the terrain into regular geometric blocks characteristic of the Great Plains.

McKenna Lake dominates the central-southern portion of the sheet, providing a large water feature amidst a landscape dotted with smaller wetlands and depressions. The presence of these numerous seasonal basins indicates a complex glacial topography, where drainage patterns are often localized and disconnected. This 2017 survey reflects the enduring agricultural layout of the region, where township lines like t136n r73w and t135n r72w continue to dictate the placement of farmsteads and rural infrastructure.
