About this map

Princeton serves as the focal point of this Gibson County survey, showing a well-established community anchored by the central Courthouse and the Southern and Chicago And Eastern Illinois railroads. The town's social fabric is visible through several educational and religious landmarks, including Lowell Sch, Franklin Sch, and St Josephs Ch. To the south and east, the landscape transitions into a mix of industrial and recreational sites, such as the Oil Refinery and a Drive-in Theater, while Baldwin Heights marks a residential expansion of the city limits.
