USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The Little Calumet River and its accompanying marshlands dominate the northern landscape of this region, reflecting the transition between the lakefront dunes and the developed interior of Porter County. The town of Chesterton sits as a central hub, surrounded by smaller residential developments like Western Acres and Meadowbrook. The era's transportation infrastructure is heavily represented by a dense network of major rail lines, including the Conrail and Elgin Joliet and Eastern, alongside the Indiana East-West Toll Road.
