The map
Granite City Map Poster & Print
Granite City lies in the American Bottom, the flat floodplain on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River, directly across from north St. Louis. On a map it is defined by industry and water: the steel works along its southern side, extensive rail yards, and the Chain of Rocks Canal, which bypasses a stretch of rocky river to the west.
The town was founded in the 1890s by the Niedringhaus brothers, who moved their enamelled kitchenware business here, and the name comes from their graniteware. Its residential streets form a straight grid of modest blocks, with the old downtown close to the mills.
Just northwest of town, the Old Chain of Rocks Bridge, once part of Route 66, crosses the Mississippi with a distinctive bend in the middle and is now used by pedestrians and cyclists. A Granite City map poster shows river, canal, grid and industry in one strong composition.

Steel works
The large steel mill site forms a broad industrial block of sheds and rail sidings next to the residential grid, a key part of the town's identity.
Old Chain of Rocks Bridge
The former Route 66 bridge with its angled midpoint crosses the Mississippi northwest of town, one of the most recognisable shapes in the region.
