The Mississippi River carves a deep industrial and geographical path through this 2013 record of the Twin Cities' eastern reaches, separating St Paul from its southern neighbors. The riverfront is dominated by logistics and infrastructure, including the St. Paul Downtown Airport / Holman Field and the Metro Saint Paul Water Treatment Facility near the expansive Pigs Eye Lake. This landscape is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting numerous burial grounds such as Oakland Cem, Elmhurst Cem, and several smaller religious sites like the Sons of Moses Cem. Cultural landmarks like Cathedral Hill and the James Hill Reference Library overlook the river valley, while the eastern residential expansion is evidenced by the growth around Lake Phalen and the suburban communities of Highwood and Gladstone.
