About this map

The Mississippi River carves a deep path through this landscape, separating Washington Co from Dakota Co and creating a complex system of islands and backwaters. The terrain is defined by the broad river valley where Grey Cloud Island and Buck Island sit amidst channels like the Grey Cloud Channel and Mooers Lake. On the higher ground, suburban development in Woodbury and Saint Paul Park is balanced by extensive recreational and agricultural spaces, including the Mississippi Dunes Golf Course and Grove Orchard.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds documented here, such as the Atkinson Cem, Cottage Grove Cem, and Rose Hill Cem. The map also captures the layout of established communities like Newport and Hastings, alongside smaller locales like Langdon and Nininger. Infrastructure such as the Eagles Point Water Treatment Facility and the network of roads including Military RD and E Point Douglas RD S highlight the region's mid-century growth and connectivity.
