1970 Map of East Lansing

The map reveals a transition from the urbanized centers of East Lansing to the more rural sections of Meridian and Alaiedon townships. Notable local landmarks for researchers include numerous schools such as Kinawa Sch and Alaiedon Sch, alongside significant cemeteries like Leek Cem and River Bend Cem. The dense concentration of gravel pits and varied drainage systems, such as Banta Drain and Sycamore Creek, illustrate the region's managed hydrology and local resource extraction during this period.
