About this map

Lakeview serves as the central hub of this West Michigan landscape, situated on the western shore of Tamarack Lake at the intersection of several significant local arteries. The village layout is detailed down to street-level names like Sherman Ave and Washington Ave, highlighting its development as a residential and service center for the surrounding agricultural community. The terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands and drainage systems, including the Weatherby Drain and Blanchard Drain, which manage the water levels of the numerous glacial lakes that dot the area.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several interment sites such as Lakeview Cem, Dickerson Cem, and Rustford Cem near the northern boundary. Transportation infrastructure is represented by the Lakeview-Griffith Field airport and a grid of rural roads such as Howard City Edmore Rd, which connects the region's isolated farmsteads. The southern portion of the sheet features the elevated Brady Hills, offering a contrast to the low-lying marshlands surrounding Pickerel Lake and Winfield Lake.
