About this map

Eagan and the suburban expanses south of the Minnesota River characterize this 2010 topographic study. The river corridor is dominated by broad wetlands and water bodies such as Long Meadow Lake and Black Dog Lake, the latter featuring the Blackdog Lake Dam. These natural features stand in contrast to the heavy infrastructure of the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport and the expansive Fort Snelling National Cemetery in the northern portion of the quadrangle.

Transportation networks are a defining element of this era, with the Cedar Avenue Bridge and numerous major thoroughfares connecting modern residential developments like Cedar Grove and the historic location of Nicols. Recreational and community sites are also prominent, including Parkview Golf Course, Camp Butwin, and the Doyles Landing Strip, reflecting the multi-use nature of the Minnesota River valley's edge at the start of the decade.
