1996 Map of Quincy West

About this map

The Mississippi River dominates this landscape, serving as the border between Illinois and Missouri while shaping an intricate network of islands and side channels. The city of Quincy sits on the eastern bluff, its grid of streets such as Maine St and Broadway leading toward the riverfront and the Quincy Mem Bridge. The map captures the industrial and logistical infrastructure of the mid-1990s, including Lock and Dam No 21 and various mines south of the city. Extensive conservation areas like the Mark Twain Wildlife Refuge and the Canton Chute Public Use Area occupy the western lowlands, where the Fabius River and Crooked Slough wind through the floodplain. Genealogists will find several major burial grounds documented, including St Boniface Cem and Sunset Cem, alongside many local parks that define the city's green space.
