1965 Map of Mt Vernon

About this map

Mt Vernon and Lisbon serve as the primary hubs of this mid-1960s survey, dominated by the campus of Cornell College and the agricultural lands of eastern Iowa. The geography is defined by the winding course of the Cedar River to the southwest, where Palisades-Kepler State Park preserves a rugged stretch of wooded shoreline. Industry and transport are anchored by the Chicago and North Western railroad, which parallels several active Quarries and a Sandpit, indicating the area's geological reliance on stone and aggregate production.
