About this map

Holland and Zeeland anchor this 1972 survey, showcasing the dense cultural and institutional development of these Dutch-settled communities in Ottawa County. The map provides a detailed view of the regional educational and religious landscape, highlighting Hope College, the Western Theological Seminary, and numerous parochial schools like Maplewood Christian Sch. The Macatawa River and its tributaries, including the North Branch and South Branch, flow through the terrain toward Lake Macatawa, while the historic Chesapeake And Ohio railroad line cuts through the hearts of both main settlements.
