1961 Map of Jackson

About this map

Jackson serves as a dense industrial and transit hub in this early 1960s survey, defined by its role as a junction for the Detroit Toledo and Ironton and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads. The landscape surrounding the city is heavily marked by extractive industry, with dozens of Strip Mines, Quarries, and Kilns dotting the hillsides of McCune Ridge and Pine Ridge. This industrial activity exists alongside extensive public lands within the Wayne National Forest, where steep hollows like Harper Hollow and Erwin Hollow remain largely undeveloped.
