About this map

Renton and Kent anchor this detailed landscape in 2017, showcasing the dense urban development south of Lake Washington. The topography is defined by the convergence of major waterways, including the Cedar River and the Green River, which shaped the early industrial and agricultural corridors of the valley. Historic sites such as the Saar Pioneer Cem and Mount Olivet Cem provide grounded links to early settlement, while the presence of the Renton Municipal Airport and the BNSF Railway highlights the area's continued role as a regional transportation hub.

Institutional growth is evident through the numerous educational facilities like Renton Technical Coll and the Pima Medical Institute Renton. Natural features remain integral to the suburban fabric, with the massive Lake Youngs reservoir to the east and the Cedar River Trail following the river's bend toward Maplewood. These detailed records of Cascade, Fairwood, and East Hill-Meridian capture the modern layout of King County’s south end.
