Looping suburban streets
Residential neighbourhoods are built around curving streets and cul-de-sacs. Together they make soft, repeating patterns quite unlike the grids of older cities.

The map
Apple Valley is a suburb in Dakota County, Minnesota, south of Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Its map is typical of late twentieth-century American planning. Curving residential streets loop around cul-de-sacs, a few straighter arterial roads carry traffic north and south, and schools, ball fields and parks fit into the gaps. Cedar Avenue is the main corridor through town.
Small lakes and ponds are scattered across the city, and green space is generous. The best-known landmark is the Minnesota Zoo, which covers a large wooded site on the eastern side of the city. On the poster it shows as a broad open area with winding paths, very different from the tight suburban loops around it.
An Apple Valley map poster turns a familiar suburb into a surprisingly graphic image. Rounded street patterns, lakes, parks and the zoo's large green block make a composition that feels organic rather than gridded. It is a natural choice for a first family home or a place where someone grew up.

The state zoo occupies a large wooded site in the city. On the map it appears as a broad open area crossed by winding paths.
Small lakes, ponds and parkland are scattered through the city. They break up the streets and give the poster pale shapes to rest the eye on.
