About this map

The Illinois River serves as the central artery of this region, separating the urban core of Peoria from the developing heights and industrial areas to the east. By the mid-20th century, the landscape shows a dense network of neighborhoods supported by numerous parish schools and public institutions, including Bradley University and Woodruff High School. The riverfront is a hub of infrastructure, featuring the Peoria Lock and Dam and multiple crossings like the Cedar St Bridge and McClugage Bridge.
