2011 Map of Waverly

About this map

Waverly and its surrounding agricultural landscape appear here in the early 21st century, defined by the winding course of Salt Creek and its many tributaries. The area shows a transition between the established town center—home to the Waverly Post Office and Waverly Cemetery—and the developing rural tracts to the west and south. This survey documents the critical water management infrastructure of the region, including the Snyder Dam and Sponheimer Dam, which create reservoirs that punctuate the prairie drainage system. To the south, the Marian Center and Pierce Cemetery stand as quiet landmarks among a grid of farm-to-market roads like McKelvie Rd and Alvo Rd. The presence of the Hall-Feld Airport in the northwest corner highlights the local aviation footprint within this Nebraska landscape of creek beds and reservoirs.
