About this map

The Peshtigo River winds through the eastern portion of this Marinette County landscape, powering the local economy via the Potato Rapids Dam and its adjacent Powerplant. In the early 1980s, the region was defined by a mix of agricultural smallholdings and industrial activity, evidenced by the numerous Gravel Pit locations and the heavy rail presence of the Chicago and North Western line.

Rural life is anchored by family and community landmarks such as Harmony Cem and the St Johns Sch Church. The map details a dense network of local roads named for early settlers and local institutions, including Homestead Road and Red School Road. From the Peshtigo Lookout Tower overlooking the wooded sections of Porterfield to the residential streets of Peshtigo and the small cluster at Wilcox, this survey captures the intersection of Wisconsin's timber heritage and modern infrastructure.
