The Des Plaines River winds through the heart of Lake County, defining the corridor between the northern border at Russell and the southern urban expansion of Gurnee. This contemporary survey illustrates the dense network of residential subdivisions and transportation arteries that have developed around established centers like Wadsworth and Old Mill Creek. The landscape is a mix of protected natural spaces, such as the Forest Preserve near Sterling Lake, and critical infrastructure including the Waukegan National Airport.
