1965 Map of Ann Arbor East

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Huron River winds through this 1960s landscape, anchoring a corridor of academic and public institutions including the University of Michigan and Eastern Michigan University. The map documents the rapid suburban eastward expansion of Ann Arbor toward Dixboro and Geddes, showing new residential developments and the established University of Michigan North Campus. Beyond the urban core, the terrain is defined by glacial features including numerous Gravel Pits and the rolling grounds of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Long-standing local landmarks like Forest Hill Cemetery and St Johns Ch provide important points of reference for genealogists. The transportation network is in a state of transition, with the Conrail and Ann Arbor RR lines serving the river valley while the modern footprint of U S 23 begins to reshape the township boundaries.
