1914 Map of Grand Rapids

About this map

Grand Rapids dominates the upper-left quadrant of this early 20th-century survey, revealing the dense urban core and developing street grid as it expands outward into Wyoming and Paris townships. The Grand River carves a path through the city center, which is anchored by civic features like John Ball Park and the Old Fairground. The industrial and transportation identity of the era is clearly visible through the convergence of major rail lines, including the Grand Rapids and Indiana and the Pere Marquette, which spurred the growth of peripheral settlements such as Beverly, Ivanrest, and Wyoming Park.
