2013 Map of Webb

About this map

Webb sits at the eastern edge of this Clay County landscape, where the town's small grid is defined by Lake St and Church St. The surrounding terrain is dominated by a systematic agricultural grid of numbered avenues and streets, a hallmark of the midwestern prairie. This geometric order is broken only by the meandering paths of the Little Sioux River and its tributaries, Montgomery Cr and Willow Cr. The drainage patterns of these waterways create the only significant relief in an otherwise strictly partitioned territory. This survey documents the modern rural infrastructure along the Co Line Rd, reflecting the enduring township-and-range division of Iowa's farmland in the early twenty-first century.
