About this map

The Detroit River serves as the central artery for this international crossing, linking industrial Detroit with Windsor. The landscape is dominated by the massive infrastructure of the mid-20th century, from the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel to the expanding network of the Edsel Ford Freeway and Chrysler Freeway. On the Michigan side, the grid is punctuated by major landmarks like Tiger Stadium, Olympia Stadium, and the expansive grounds of Wayne State University.
