1936 Map of Muskegon

About this map

Grand Haven and the mouth of the Grand River serve as the focal point for this mid-1930s coastal survey, illustrating the complex hydrology where the river meets Lake Michigan. The area is defined by a dense network of inland waters, including Spring Lake, Mona Lake, and numerous named bayous such as Pottawattomie Bayou and Stearns Bayou. The maritime and industrial character of the shoreline is evident, with the Pere Marquette railroad lines threading through Ferrysburg and the lakefront.
