2012 Map of Saint Charles

About this map

Saint Charles serves as the focal point of this Missouri landscape, situated along the western banks of the Missouri River. The area illustrates a complex network of transportation and university life, with Lindenwood University established near the city center. Across the river, the developed corridors of Earth City and Bridgeton meet the expansive grounds of the Lambert-Saint Louis International Airport. This 2012 survey captures the transition from urban density to the floodplain topography of Bryan Island and Les Mamelles. Historical continuity is evident in the numerous burial grounds documented, including Emmaus Cemetery, Borromeo Cemetery, and Saint Peters Cemetery. The Wabash Bridge and Electric Bridge provide critical crossings, linking the industrial parks of the eastern shore with the residential and academic heart of the county seat.
