2012 Map of Minneapolis North

About this map

The Solomon River meanders across the western landscape of this Ottawa County region, defining a broad valley that has long supported the agricultural life of north-central Kansas. Near the southern boundary, the northern edge of Minneapolis serves as the primary hub, where a grid of streets including Pipe St and N Rock St meet the rural road network. Smaller localities such as Sumnerville and Alfmil anchor the surrounding townships, which are interconnected by a geometric lattice of named roads like Treaty Rd and Quaker Rd. The terrain is further drained by the intricate winding paths of Pipe Cr and Lindsey Cr, showing how the natural hydrology intersects with a landscape organized for farming and transit. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring relationship between the river valley and the rural communities that maintain the township lines.
