About this map

The Cedar River flows through the southern reaches of this landscape, shaping the urban and industrial layout of Waterloo. This 2015 survey reveals a dense network of neighborhoods and institutional landmarks, including the campus of Allen Coll and several prominent burial grounds such as Fairview Cem and Garden of Memories. The river itself is punctuated by distinct landforms like San-Souci Island and Robinson Crusoe Island, which define the local riverfront character.

Beyond the city limits, the terrain transitions into a structured agricultural grid defined by the township lines of t90n r13w and t90n r12w. This rural expanse is marked by small crossroads and historic sites like Saint John's Evangelical Lutheran Church Cem and the settlement of Armour. Watercourses such as Virden Cr and Elk Run cut across the section lines, highlighting the drainage patterns of the Black Hawk County prairie.
