2013 Map of Pella

About this map

Pella stands as a significant cultural and civic hub in this early 21st-century landscape, defined by its orderly grid and Dutch heritage landmarks like the Tulip Toren. The city is framed by a transition from industrial and municipal development, such as the Pella Municipal Airport and Ryerson Golf Range, to the expansive shoreline of Lake Red Rock in the southwest. The surrounding countryside is dissected by numerous waterways including the S Skunk River to the north and the meandering paths of Thunder Cr and Lighting Cr. This survey illustrates the modern expansion of the area, where historical road corridors like Dubuque St and Erbe St meet newer developments and recreational sites such as Wallashuck Campground, capturing the balance between the township's established center and its varied agricultural and riparian borders.
