Lake Michigan dominates the northern edge of this 2016 survey, where the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and Marquette Park Beach provide a natural buffer for the industrial and residential corridors of Gary and Miller. The map captures an era of established urban density transitioning into the surrounding suburbs of Merrillville, Hobart, and Lake Station. Educational and civic anchors such as Indiana University Northwest and Ivy Tech Community College-Northwest are clearly situated within the gridded streetscape of Glen Park.
