About this map

The Menominee River serves as a natural and political boundary in this coastal survey, separating Marinette, Wisconsin, from Menominee, Michigan. The map documents the urban interface with Lake Michigan, where the river discharges into Green Bay. Significant coastal landforms are visible at the mouth of the river, including the protective arc of Seagull Bar and the submerged Menekaunee Shoal. Further out in the bay, Green Island marks a lonely landmark within the maritime expanse.

Industrial and residential development is concentrated along the riverbanks, particularly on the Wisconsin side where streets like Main St, Hosmer St, and Elizabeth Ave grid the neighborhoods near the waterfront. To the north, the Michigan side shows a similarly structured layout with numbered streets and avenues such as 20th Ave and 10th St. The inclusion of Kirby Cr in the northern portion of the map provides a look at the smaller drainage systems feeding into the larger bay complex during the early 21st century.
