Edwardsville

Edwardsville lies along Cahokia Creek, where the gently rolling uplands of southwestern Illinois descend toward the Mississippi River floodplain. As the county seat of Madison County and part of the Greater St. Louis area, it combines a traditional courthouse-square downtown with the academic presence of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. The restored Wildey Theatre, a 1909 vaudeville house, remains a downtown venue for films and performances. Parks, trails and established residential streets spread out from the centre, while the Metro East's rail, road and river-industrial landscape begins to the south and west.
