2011 Map of Muskegon West

About this map

Muskegon Lake dominates this coastal landscape, serving as a deep-water harbor protected by the North Breakwater Light and South Breakwater Light. In Muskegon and its southern neighbors, the grid of residential streets is punctuated by significant local landmarks, including the Milwaukee Clipper Dock and several historic burial grounds such as the Indian Cemetery and Lakeside Cemetery. The map captures the industrial and maritime heritage of the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, where maritime navigation aids like Hartshorn Light and Bank Point Light line the approach to the inner harbor. Further south, the suburban expansion of Roosevelt Park and Norton Shores transitions toward Mona Lake, while the Muskegon County Airport occupies the southern reaches of the quadrangle. This detailed topographical study illustrates the integration of recreation at the Muskegon State Park Channel Campground with the essential infrastructure of a Great Lakes port city.
