1904 Map of Ann Arbor

About this map

The Huron River serves as the central artery for this early twentieth-century survey of Washtenaw County and its neighbors, anchoring the regional economy of settlements like Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. The landscape is defined by its transition from the dense cluster of glacial lakes in the northwest, including Whitmore Lake and Portage Lake, to the established agricultural and industrial corridors in the south and east. A complex transportation network is visible, where heavy rail lines like the Michigan Central R.R. and Grand Trunk R.R. operate alongside the burgeoning Electric R.R. system connecting smaller hubs.
