About this Monroe map poster
Monroe is the seat of Union County in North Carolina, southeast of Charlotte. Its map is built around a traditional county seat: a compact grid of downtown blocks around the courthouse, with main roads leading out in several directions toward the surrounding towns and farmland.
As Charlotte's suburbs have expanded, Monroe has grown too. Newer residential areas with curving streets surround the older core, and major routes such as US 74 cross the area. The Monroe Expressway, a newer toll road, draws a long curved line around the northern part of the city.
A Monroe map poster captures this layering: the regular old grid in the middle, a ring of newer neighbourhoods, and large highways bringing in movement from outside. Printed in black and white, it shows how a Southern county town has expanded while keeping its historic centre.

The Monroe Expressway
The toll road curves around the north of the city, adding a long, smooth line that contrasts with the grid.
Growing neighbourhoods
Newer residential areas with loops and cul-de-sacs surround the older core, giving the edges of the print a more organic texture.

Why Monroe
A map that means something
The print suits people who grew up in Union County, families who have recently moved to the area, and anyone who appreciates classic Southern towns. The mix of grid and curved streets gives it a clear sense of place.
You can personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, for example with a family name or a special date. Five styles are available: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Classic black & white suits the courthouse grid.
