About this map

The Grand River and Red Cedar River converge in the heart of this mid-1960s state capital landscape, which is densely packed with civic institutions and expanding residential tracts. The city core is anchored by the State Capitol, the Civic Center, and the State School for the Blind, while industrial and transit corridors like the New York Central Railroad and Chesapeake and Ohio define the urban layout. South of the city limits, the terrain transitions into a patchwork of rural drains such as Gilkey Drain and Hilliard Drain, supporting smaller communities like Holt and Millett. This survey captures a moment of significant mid-century growth, evident in the numerous new schools like Everett High Sch and Waverly High Sch that pepper the suburbanizing fringes near the Eaton and Ingham County line.
