About this map

Highland Park and Hamtramck form distinctive enclaves within the dense urban grid of Detroit in this 2014 survey. The map details a complex intersection of municipal boundaries where Oakland, Macomb, and Wayne counties meet. This geography is defined by its extensive industrial-era street plan and major transportation corridors, including the Davison Fwy W and Edsel Ford Fwy E.

Genealogists will find the area particularly notable for its concentration of large memorial parks and cemeteries, such as Woodlawn Cem, Evergreen Cem, and Mt Olivet Cem, which serve as significant green spaces amidst the residential blocks. The eastern portion of the quadrangle is anchored by the Detroit City Airport, illustrating the continued role of aviation infrastructure within the city's northeast side. Surrounding communities like Hazel Park, Ferndale, and Center Line further define the suburban-urban interface of the early 21st century.
