About this map

The Fort Custer Military Reservation dominates this mid-century landscape along the Kalamazoo Co Calhoun Co line, illustrating the significant military and medical footprint in the region shortly after the war. The map reveals a dense concentration of facilities, including the Veterans Hospital and the American Legion Hospital, alongside the extensive grounds of Fort Custer. This infrastructure is integrated into a river-and-rail corridor defined by the Kalamazoo River and the New York Central Railroad.
