About this map

Newell anchors the western edge of this northwest Iowa landscape, where the town's grid is defined by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad. The surrounding countryside is divided among several townships, including Cedar, Douglas, and Williams, reflecting the dense agricultural partitioning of the late 1970s. This survey illustrates a heavily managed hydrology, where natural drainages like Prairie Creek are supplemented by an extensive network of engineered waterways, including Ditch No 1, Ditch No 20, and Ditch No 81.
