Lake Erie dominates this coastal survey, where the shoreline of Chautauqua County meets the Great Lakes. The map illustrates a developed lakefront margin just north of the city center, featuring the Dunkirk Conference Grounds and the nearby Saint Hyacinth's Cem. This area represents the transition from urban infrastructure to more suburban and rural road networks. Small tributaries like Scott Cr and Beaver Cr drain the coastal plain as they flow toward the lake. The terrestrial portion of the map is defined by a grid of local corridors including Middle Rd and Werle Rd, which serve the residential and agricultural parcels situated along the shoreline bluffs. This 2013 data provides a clear record of the modern shoreline configuration and land use before subsequent coastal erosion or development changed the landscape.
