About this map

Saint Charles sits at the heart of this mid-century landscape, positioned along the Illinois Central railroad line that drove the local coal economy. The survey reveals a region defined by extensive industrial activity, including the Nortonville Strip Mine and several active operations like the Brackett Mine and Williams Mine. These mines are interspersed with a network of rural communities and landmarks, such as Carbondale and the settlement of Daniel Boone.
