Birmingham and the neighboring communities of Troy, Royal Oak, and Berkley define the landscape of southern Oakland County in this early 1980s record. The Grand Trunk Western railroad corridor slices through the region, providing the industrial backbone for the residential growth radiating from Woodward Ave. The map captures a transitional era where traditional neighborhood schools like Quarton Sch and Seaholm High Sch are surrounded by intensifying suburban development, indicated by updated urban areas in purple.
