1952 Map of Detroit Wayne Airport

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Detroit-Wayne Airport dominates the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the rapidly developing townships of Romulus, Taylor, and Brownstown. The map reveals a transition from rural farmsteads to suburban infrastructure, evidenced by the dense network of drainage systems like the Sexton and Kilfoil Drain and Frank and Poet Drain that crisscross the flat terrain. This era of growth is further highlighted by the Detroit Expressway and the commercial activity along Telegraph Road.
