2015 Map of Warsaw

About this map

The Mississippi River defines the border between Illinois and Missouri, where the towns of Warsaw and Alexandria face each other across the water. On the Illinois side, Warsaw sits on elevated ground, marked by a dense grid of streets including Main St, Summit Ave, and Warsaw-Hamilton Rd. This topography is home to several burial sites, such as the Catholic Cem and Oakland Cem, which stand above the river's floodplain. The Missouri side presents a starkly different character, dominated by complex water systems like Pickle House Slough and Hemp Slough. Between the main banks, the river is punctuated by numerous landforms, including Kamps-Stiens Island, Kusie Island, and Hackley Island. Further south, the landscape transitions into agricultural plots and smaller settlements like Gregory Landing, where the Fox River meets the larger waterway.
