USGS Topo · Published 1890About this map
The county seat of Tipton serves as the primary hub of this 1889 survey, where a well-defined street grid meets the Burlington Cedar Rapids and Northern Railroad. The landscape is largely defined by the late nineteenth-century rail expansion, with the Chicago and North-Western Railroad cutting a sharp east-west line through the northern half of the county. This corridor facilitated the growth of shipping points like Mechanicsville, Stanwood, and Clarence, which are shown here in their early stages of development.
