2019 Map of Saint Paul SW

About this map

Fort Snelling National Cemetery and the expansive Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge dominate the landscape at the confluence of the regional river systems. This modern survey illustrates the suburban expansion of Bloomington, Eagan, and Burnsville around the winding corridor of the Minnesota River. Significant wetland and ecological preservation areas, including the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area, are clearly delineated, showing a complex network of lakes such as Long Meadow Lake and Black Dog Lake. The map captures the dense infrastructure of the modern era, featuring the intersection of major transit routes and the preservation of historical burial grounds like Saint Johns Cem and Trinity Lone Oak Cem. It serves as an essential reference for understanding how these communities integrated large-scale conservation zones with rapid residential and commercial development in the late 2010s.
