2015 Map of Neelys Landing
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The Mississippi River defines the border between Missouri and Illinois on this 2015 study, illustrating a shoreline shaped by river islands and towheads. Riverside settlements like Neelys Landing, Hines Landing, and Lovejoy anchor the Missouri bank, while the Illinois side features Grand Tower Island and Big Muddy Island. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Union Point and river chutes to the upland areas of Birmingham Hills. Inland, a network of county roads connects rural communities like Altenburg and New Wells, weaving through a landscape drained by Neelys Cr and Shawnee Cr. The map's detailed hydrology includes Tower Island Chute and Gerler Lake, reflecting the complex relationship between the local communities and the river's shifting path.
