The Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport dominates the northwestern corner of this landscape, marking the intense urban and industrial development characterizing the Romulus and Taylor area. Below the airfield, the terrain is defined by an intricate network of artificial drainage channels like the Sloss and Ganong Drain and Sexton and Kilfoil Drain, which manage water across the flat topography towards the Huron River and Brownstown Cr. These waterways reflect the engineering required to support the suburban expansion of Woodhaven and surrounding townships.
