1964 Map of Maumee

About this map

The Maumee River defines this 1960s landscape, serving as the county line between Lucas Co and Wood Co while anchoring the historic centers of Maumee and Perrysburg. This era captures a region balancing its military heritage with modern infrastructure, evidenced by the proximity of Fort Meigs State Memorial and Fallen Timbers State Memorial to the newly established Ohio Turnpike and Anthony Wayne Trail. The map details a transition from the dense urban grid of Toledo in the northeast to the outlying settlements of Holland, Monclova, and Waterville. Industrial and transport networks are prominent, including the Norfolk and Western and Baltimore and Ohio railroads. Notable local landmarks such as Ewing Island, Albon Lake, and the County Recreation Center illustrate the diverse land use of the river valley during this mid-century period.
