2013 Map of Nashua

About this map

Nashua sits at the convergence of the Cedar River and the Little Cedar River, a landscape defined by the expansive Cedar Lake reservoir. This 2013 survey highlights the geographic importance of the river systems in Chickasaw County, showing how the community has integrated with the water through sites like the Nashua Cedar River Access. To the northeast, the settlement of Bradford is documented alongside the Bradford Pioneer Village, an area preserving the early heritage of the region. The map details a transition from the structured residential grid of Nashua, featuring streets like Wabash Ave and Wentling St, to the surrounding agricultural prairie. Smaller locales such as Pearl Rock and Greenwood appear along the river banks, while the drainage of Gizzard Cr and Schultz Cr feeds into the central basin, illustrating the complex hydrography of the Iowa plains.
