Milwaukee’s industrial and educational heart dominates this 2010 landscape, where the confluence of the Milwaukee River, Menomonee River, and Kinnickinnic River meets the coast of Lake Michigan. The map reveals a dense network of civic and maritime infrastructure, from the Milwaukee Municipal Mooring Basin and various slips on Jones Island to the sprawling Milwaukee Stockyards and the Wisconsin Electric Coal Yard along the South Menomonee Canal. Educational landmarks like Marquette University and the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee sit alongside a remarkably high concentration of burial grounds, including the large Wood National Cemetery, Union Cemetery, and Calvary Cemetery.
