About this map

The city of Flint dominates the southern landscape of this 1920s-era survey, showing an urban core defined by the Flint River and a dense network of residential streets and industrial rail lines. The Pere Marquette and Grand Trunk Western railroads cut through the region, facilitating the movement of materials for the burgeoning automotive center. To the north, the landscape transitions into agricultural townships, dotted with numerous one-room schoolhouses like Wildcat School and Boutwell School, and small rural villages including Clio, Mount Morris, and Otisville.
