2012 Map of Webster Groves

About this map

Grants Farm and the sprawling grounds of Jefferson Barracks anchor this landscape, illustrating the suburban evolution of the region south and west of the city. The map reveals a dense network of residential growth and established neighborhoods, from Webster Groves to Brentwood and the distinctive cultural enclave of The Hill. This 2012 survey highlights an extraordinary concentration of memorial sites and historic burying grounds, such as Sunset Burial Park, Saint Paul Cemetery, and Old Saint Marcus Cemetery, which define large portions of the land use in communities like Affton and Lemay. The hydrology is dominated by the winding course of Gravois Creek and the engineered River des Peres Drainage Channel, while the Mississippi River marks the eastern boundary. Civic infrastructure is noted through numerous local facilities like the Maplewood Post Office and Charles J Coyle Post Office.
