2015 Map of Springfield East

About this map

The Sangamon River snakes through the northern portion of this landscape, separating the village of Riverton from the outlying residential developments of Spaulding and Bissell. This 2015 survey reveals the established infrastructure of Illinois' capital region, where industrial markers like Shaft Pond near the riverbanks contrast with the preserved green space of Carpenter Park. The map documents a high density of burial grounds essential for genealogical research, including the Ladysmith Cem, Taylor Cem, and the expansive Roselawn Memorial Park Cem. To the south, the terrain transitions toward the South Fork Sangamon River and the northern reaches of Lake Springfield, passing through the suburban and semi-rural communities of Rochester, Keys, and Shale Bluff. Transportation networks are dominated by the highway corridors that intersect near Arlington Heights and Grandview, while Stanton Airport remains a notable landmark on the eastern edge of the quadrangle.
