1963 Map of Marinette East

About this map

The border cities of Menominee, Michigan, and Marinette, Wisconsin, face one another across the mouth of the Menominee River in this 1960s survey. The map details a dense urban and industrial shoreline where the river meets Green Bay, featuring numerous municipal landmarks such as the Courthouse, Post Office, and several schools including Lincoln Sch and St Ann Sch. Transport networks are prominently shown, with both the C & N W and C M St P & P railroads serving the waterfront districts. Further offshore, the map transitions into the waters of the bay, marking the shifting sands of Seagull Bar and the isolated Green Island to the east. This period of development shows the cities as established industrial hubs, with clearly defined residential blocks and public spaces like Red Arrow Park and Lauerman Field.
