About this map

Milan and the surrounding river bottomlands are defined by the convergence of the Mississippi River and Rock River, creating a complex network of islands and waterways. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern layout of the Quad Cities region, featuring a mosaic of residential developments and industrial infrastructure. Notable river features include Vandruff Island, Carr Island, and Big Island, while land-based landmarks such as Quad City International Airport and the Commonwealth College campus highlight the area's role as a regional hub.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds documented, including Chippiannock Cem, Hebrew Cem, and Calvary Cem. Beyond the urban core, the map detail extends to established communities like Coyne Center, Ginger Hill, and Fruitland, along with several golf courses and municipal parks like Credit Island Golf Course and Indian Bluff Golf Course. The drainage patterns of Mill Cr and Case Cr provide insight into the local topography south of the primary river valleys.
