1912 Map of Lansing

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Lansing and its southern surroundings emerge as a hub of rail activity and rural settlement in this early 20th-century survey. The confluence of the Grand River and Cedar River serves as the focal point for the state capital, where the Pere Marquette RR and Michigan Central RR intersect. Southward along the river’s winding course, industrial and agricultural life is anchored by smaller centers like Dimondale and Eaton Rapids, while the Southern Michigan Electric RR provides an early look at regional electric rail transit.
