2019 Map of Northport

About this map

The tip of the Leelanau Peninsula comes into sharp focus in this 21st-century record, where the village of Northport serves as the southern anchor. The landscape is defined by its deep relationship with Lake Michigan, featuring prominent landforms like Lighthouse Point and Cat Head Point. Recreational and municipal infrastructure is well-documented, from the Leelanau State Park - Mud Lake Trail and Winter Sports Trail to the uniquely positioned Woolsey Memorial Airport. Local history is preserved through the mapping of the Leelanau Township Number One and Two Cem and the Northport Point Columbarium Cem, while the interior is dotted with significant water bodies such as Mud Lake and Leg Lake. This survey illustrates how the northern reaches of the peninsula balance conservation areas with developed points and bays.
