1929 Map of Mt Clemens

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Mt Clemens sits at the heart of this Macomb County landscape, where the Clinton River and its multiple branches converge before entering Anchor Bay. Surveyed in the mid-1920s, the map reveals a region transitioning from an agricultural and milling economy toward industrialization and military significance. The presence of a Sugar Mill near the river and the expansive Selfridge Field along the shoreline of Lake Saint Clair illustrate this shift. Transportation is anchored by the Grand Trunk Railway and the Detroit United Railway, which connected early settlements like New Haven, Chesterfield, and Fraser. Local life is detailed through numerous rural landmarks, including St Pauls Lutheran Sch and several family-named drainage districts like Cady Drain and Harrington Drain. From the early developments of Saint Clair Shores to the scattered crossroads of Waldenburg and Milton, the sheet captures a period of significant coastal and inland growth.
