1973 Map of Chelsea

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Chelsea serves as the primary hub of this 1970s survey, showing a dense network of residential streets, the Penn Central rail line, and essential local institutions like the Beach Sch and St Mary Ch. The surrounding landscape of Sylvan and Lyndon townships is defined by glacial kettle lakes and extensive protected lands. The Waterloo State Recreation Area and Pinckney State Recreation Area dominate the northern half of the quadrangle, preserving a complex of water bodies including Winnewana Impoundment, Mill Lake, and Cavanaugh Lake. This period in Washtenaw County history is characterized by the coexistence of these recreational wilds with active agriculture and specialized sites such as the Cassidy Lake Technical Sch and the expansive Proving Ground in the southern reaches of the map.
