The expanding eastern residential corridors of Quincy meet the rural townships of Ellington and Melrose in this mid-1990s topographical survey. The landscape is notably dense with commemorative and family sites, including the National Cem, St Peters Cem, and Laughlin Cem. Beyond the city grid along College Ave and Maine St, the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Mill Creek and Cedar Creek, where small settlements like Ewbanks and Hickory Grove mark the transition to open Illinois farmland. A distinct Quarry sits near the center of the map, illustrating local extractive industry alongside natural features like Ward Spring and the evocative Ghost Hollow to the southwest. The presence of numerous Mobile Home Parks and several Comm Towers indicates the late-century infrastructure and population shifts occurring just east of the city core.
