About this Hastings map poster
Hastings sits on the Mississippi River in Dakota County, Minnesota, southeast of the Twin Cities, near where the Vermillion River and, a little downstream, the St. Croix join the main channel. From above, the river dominates, a broad band with islands, channels and wetlands. The town's original grid rises from the south bank, and newer neighbourhoods spread out onto the higher ground beyond.
Hastings is the Dakota County seat and one of the older towns in the state, with a historic downtown of nineteenth-century brick buildings along the riverfront. The river crossing has long defined the town. The original spiral bridge was replaced in the 1950s, and a new tied-arch bridge opened in 2013. Lock and Dam No. 2 lies just upstream of downtown.
A Hastings map poster frames the relationship between a town and its river. The regular blocks of the old centre meet the curving shoreline, the bridge crosses the water in a single clean line, and the backwaters spread out in intricate shapes to the east. It is a rich composition for such a compact place.

Historic downtown
The nineteenth-century commercial district sits in a tight grid beside the river. On the map its regular blocks contrast with the curving natural shoreline.
Bridge and lock
The highway bridge crosses the river in one strong stroke, while Lock and Dam No. 2 marks the channel upstream. Both highlight Hastings' long role as a crossing point.

Why Hastings
A map that means something
Hastings holds a special place for people who grew up by the river, walked its downtown or crossed its bridge every day. A map poster turns those familiar shapes into something quiet and lasting for a wall at home.
Personalise the title and subtitle, perhaps with a family name or wedding date, and adjust the coordinates line. Five styles are available: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand.
