1968 Map of Highland

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Glacial lakes and suburban growth define this Oakland County landscape, where the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor links the established communities of Clyde and Highland. The 1968 topography, updated with later revisions, reveals a transition from traditional lakefront retreats to more permanent residential patterns, particularly around the complex shorelines of White Lake and Duck Lake. This era shows the development of leisure-focused infrastructure, including the Alpine Ski Club and the sprawling Highland State Recreation Area. Local institutions like the Duck Lake Sch and Emmanuel Ch serve the burgeoning neighborhoods of Seven Harbors and East Highland. The map preserves the footprint of earlier rural life through landmarks like the Rose Center Cem and the small settlement at Rose Center, while indicating the modern shift toward outdoor recreation and residential expansion near Haven Hill Lake.
