1967 Map of Grand Rapids East

About this map

Suburban expansion and infrastructure development characterize this area of eastern Kent County during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The Kent County Airport sits at the southeastern corner, serving as a primary transit hub for the region while new residential developments push into former farmland. The landscape is defined by its transition from the urban core of Grand Rapids and East Grand Rapids to the burgeoning communities of Kentwood and Cascade. Significant commercial hubs such as the Woodland Shopping Center and Eastbrook Shopping Center appear along the 28th Street corridor, illustrating the era's shift toward automobile-centric retail.
