2013 Map of Erie North

About this map

Presque Isle creates a natural sheltered harbor for the Pennsylvania shoreline, a geographic formation that has long defined the region's maritime character. On this modern survey, the peninsula reveals a complex network of interior water bodies like Cranberry Pond, Niagara Pond, and Ridge Pond protected by the narrow strip of land at Big Bend. The shoreline is heavily developed with industrial and recreational infrastructure, including the Erie International Main Terminal and Austin Dock Number Four. Along the mainland, the map details the residential and industrial corridors of Lawrence Park and Wesleyville, where the grid of city streets meets the natural drainage of Fourmile Creek. Points of local historical significance are preserved alongside modern transit, from the General Wayne Blockhouse near Dobbins Landing to the Erie Harbor Pier Light, marking the transition from the bustling waterfront to the open waters of Lake Erie.
