Mays Island
A narrow island in the Cedar River holding civic buildings, linked to both banks by bridges. On the poster it appears as a small block of streets floating in the middle of the water.

Cedar Rapids Map Poster & Print
From above, Cedar Rapids is organised around the Cedar River, which cuts through the city from northwest to southeast. Streets and avenues are numbered and labelled by quadrant (NE, NW, SE and SW), so the map reads as four grids meeting at the water. Downtown sits on the east bank, and a series of bridges connects it to the west side and to Mays Island in the middle of the channel.
Mays Island is the detail most people remember. Civic buildings stand on it, which makes Cedar Rapids one of very few American cities with its seat of government on a river island. A short walk upstream, the large Quaker Oats plant reflects the city's long connection to grain processing, and on some days the smell of toasted oats drifts across downtown.
A Cedar Rapids map poster shows the whole arrangement at once: the river, the island, Interstate 380 curving through the centre and residential blocks spreading toward the farmland of eastern Iowa. The painter Grant Wood lived and worked here, and his ordered, clean-lined view of the Midwest suits the calm geometry of a black-and-white street map.

Four-quadrant grid
Numbered streets and avenues divide into NE, NW, SE and SW sections. The result is four slightly offset grids that meet along the river and give the map its structure.
Interstate 380
The interstate runs north to south through the city and crosses the river close to downtown. Its long, smooth curves stand out against the square blocks on either side.

Cur Cedar Rapids
Tabula quae aliquid significat
Cedar Rapids maps tend to go to people with a long attachment to the city: those who grew up in its quadrants, worked in its plants and offices, or helped rebuild after the 2008 flood. The river and the island make the layout recognisable even without labels.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line can all be personalised, for example with a family name or a date that matters, and the map comes in five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Choose the $9 digital HD files or a printed poster with an optional wooden frame.
