Brooklyn

Brooklyn lies near the North English River in central Iowa, where gently rolling farmland and shelterbelts shape the surrounding Poweshiek County. Set just north of Interstate 80, it is a small service centre on the route between Des Moines and Iowa City. The town took its name from Brooklyn, New York, and its early growth was closely tied to the railroad crossing this part of Iowa in the nineteenth century. Compact streets, community businesses and a grain-country setting reflect the everyday rhythms of rural Iowa. Beyond town, broad horizons and row-crop fields place Brooklyn firmly within the Corn Belt. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Brooklyn and central Iowa.
