2023 Map of New Buffalo West

About this map

Lake Michigan dominates the northwestern horizon of this 2023 survey, framing a string of coastal communities along the state line between Michigan and Indiana. The shoreline is densely populated with distinct settlements like New Buffalo, Grand Beach, and Michiana, each defined by a grid of residential streets such as Hillside Trl and Ponchartrain Dr. This modern data shows the intricate transition from the lakefront dunes to the settled neighborhoods of Duneland Beach and Michiana Shores. Farther south, the map captures the outskirts of Michigan City, where the urban landscape meets the border of Berrien Co and LaPorte Co. Genealogists and local historians can use this detailed view to trace the modern layout of family burial sites at Pine Grove Cem or identify the evolution of regional thoroughfares like Lake Dr and Shore Dr that serve this popular coastal region.
