1953 Map of Avon

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Lake Erie shorelines and the emerging suburban landscape of Lorain County are meticulously detailed in this mid-1950s survey. The map highlights the distinct geological features of North Ridge and Middle Ridge, which historically dictated the paths of major thoroughfares like Detroit Road and Center Ridge Road. The industrial and residential growth of Avon Lake and Sheffield Lake is evident, while the interior remains dotted with community anchors like St Teresa Ch and St Teresa Cem.
