About this map

Lake Superior dominates this mid-century survey, its coastline forming a sharp diagonal across the northwestern Keweenaw Peninsula. The interior landscape is defined by the boundary between Keweenaw County and Houghton County, where the terrain rises toward the rugged elevations of the Copper Country. This map documents critical infrastructure supporting the region's industrial and municipal needs, specifically identifying the Tamarack Waterworks and Calumet Waterworks positioned near the shoreline. Small coastal drainages like Muggun Creek and Gardeners Creek cut through the topography toward the lake, while the outskirts of Allouez and Calumet appear in the southern and eastern corners. The layout reflects a landscape dedicated to utility and mining-era settlement, captured just after the Second World War.
