2021 Map of Highland Park

About this map

Lake Michigan forms the eastern boundary of this contemporary landscape, where a dense network of residential streets and established suburbs defines the North Shore region. The area is characterized by its organized municipal boundaries, stretching from Lake Forest and Highwood in the north down through Highland Park and into Northbrook. Inland, the Skokie River and the N Br Chicago River meander through several parklands and residential neighborhoods. Significant local history is preserved in various consecrated grounds, including the Fort Sheridan Post Cem near the lakefront and the Saint Marys Cem in Deerfield. The map reveals the intricate transition from high-density suburban blocks to the wooded environs of Bannockburn and Riverwoods, all connected by major thoroughfares like Dundee Rd and Deerfield Rd.
