2010 Map of Merrill

About this map

The confluence of the Wisconsin River and the Prairie River anchors this 2010 survey of the city of Merrill. The local landscape is defined by its relationship with water and industry, as evidenced by the Merrill 1874C118 Dam and the various reservoirs and backwaters like Alexander Lake and Pesabic Lake. The street grid of the city center clusters near the Merrill Post Office, transitioning into a network of outlying roads that cross smaller tributaries such as Joe Snow Creek and Black Alder Creek. To the north and south, the map details municipal and community infrastructure including the Merrill Municipal Airport and multiple burial grounds like Merrill Cemetery and Saint John Cemetery. This geographic record captures the developed footprint of the community alongside the wooded creek basins of central Wisconsin.
