About this map

Lake Kampeska dominates this landscape northwest of the city center, its shores lined with residential developments including North Shore and Williams Subdivision. The map shows a clear transition between the recreational and residential use of the lakefront and the industrial and transport infrastructure to the east. Watertown Regional Airport is a primary landmark, featuring an aviation-themed street grid with names like Piper Ave, Cessna St, and Boeing Ave.

The Big Sioux River meanders through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, passing the Big Sioux Conifer Nursery and Green Trees Subdivision. To the south, the northern tip of Pelican Lake is visible, while local heritage is represented by the Mother of God Monastery Cem located near the expanding city outskirts. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern layout of the area, from the youth retreat at Camp Watymca to the agricultural wetlands of Cottonwood Slough.
