About this map

Presque Isle arc across the northern horizon of this survey, protecting the waters of Presque Isle Bay and the Erie Harbor Entrance Channel. This distinctive sand spit formation is detailed with its interior lagoons and points, including Cranberry Pond, Ridge Pond, Misery Bay, and Gull Point. The urban interface of Erie meets the shoreline with a structured grid of streets and specialized infrastructure like the Port Access Rd and the W Bayfront Pkwy.

Institutional and memorial sites ground the local history, such as the Pennsylvania Soldier's and Sailor's Home Cem and the campus of Gannon Univ. Moving east, the residential and industrial character shifts through Lawrence Park and Wesleyville toward the mouth of Fourmile Creek. The map documents a modern landscape where heavy lakefront access and historic burial grounds like Lakeside Cem coexist along the Pennsylvania shoreline.
