About this map

Lake Erie defines the northern boundary of this suburban landscape, where the residential grids of Bay Village and Westlake meet the shore. The terrain is marked by distinctive geological features such as Butternut Ridge and Chestnut Ridge, which historically influenced the placement of early roads and settlements. This 2010 survey illustrates the transition from coastal recreation at Huntington Beach to the dense suburban development of North Olmsted and Olmsted Falls.

Genealogists and local historians will find an exceptional density of burial grounds, including Sunset Memorial Park Cemetery and several smaller family or denominational sites like Coe Ridge Cemetery and Saint Paul Lutheran Cemetery. The map also captures the aviation footprint of the region, noting several small airfields such as Avon Airport and the R and M Aviation Airport. The drainage network, including Porter Creek and the forks of the Rocky River, provides a clear view of the area's natural hydrology amidst its modern infrastructure.
