About this map

Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site and the surrounding dense suburban corridors of Saint Louis County define this map's landscape. The area is characterized by an exceptionally high concentration of memorial grounds, including the Sappington Grave Yard, Sunset Burial Park, and Resurrection Cemetery, which cluster among established communities like Webster Groves, Affton, and Maplewood. This residential fabric is woven between major drainage ways such as Deer Creek and Gravois Cr, leading toward the Mississippi River and the American Bottoms in the southeast.

Institutional landmarks such as Webster Univ and numerous religious sites like Saint Johns Evangelical United Church of Christ Cemetery offer touchpoints for local historians. The map also delineates the complex boundary between the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County, illustrating the mid-20th-century expansion that linked historic neighborhoods like The Hill and Carondelet with newer developments in Lakeshire and Green Park.
