2018 Map of Northeast Pontiac

About this map

The city of Pontiac serves as the focal point of this Livingston County landscape, situated at the southwestern edge of a grid-iron agricultural network. This 2018 survey reveals a territory deeply influenced by the historic corridor of Old US Hwy 66 and Old Rte 66, which bisect the terrain diagonally, connecting the smaller settlements of Cayuga and Odell. Aviation interests are represented by both the Pontiac Municipal Airport and the smaller Schott Airport, while the rural outskirts are punctuated by long-established sites of local memory such as Memorial Park Cem and Swygert Cem. Numerous watercourses, including Wolf Cr and Smith Br, weave through the townships, indicating the natural drainage patterns of this central Illinois prairie land. The intersection of modern infrastructure and legacy routes like S West St provides a clear view of the area's continued role as a regional transportation hub.
