About this map

Muskegon Lake dominates this coastal landscape, serving as the central geographic feature between the city of Muskegon and North Muskegon. The shoreline is defined by recreation and local landmarks, including the Muskegon Lakeshore Trail and the prominent Pigeon Hill. To the south, the terrain transitions into the residential and municipal layouts of Roosevelt Park and Norton Shores, where the Muskegon County Airport and the waters of Mona Lake mark the lower bounds of the quadrangle.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several significant burial sites and religious landmarks, such as Lakeside Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and the Saint Paul's Episcopal Church Columbarium. The network of residential streets and coastal drives, such as Lakeshore Dr and S Scenic Dr, illustrates the modern suburban development patterns that have integrated with the area's older maritime and industrial roots along the CSX rail line and Ruddiman Lagoon.
