1953 Map of Dune Acres

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Indiana Dunes State Park dominates the Lake Michigan shoreline in this mid-century survey, showcasing the dramatic elevations of Mt Tom, Mt Holden, and Mt Jackson. The landscape is a complex intersection of coastal conservation and heavy industrial transportation, with three major rail lines—the Chicago South Shore and South Bend RR, New York Central, and Chesapeake and Ohio—paralleling the shore just south of the dunes.
