1969 Map of Northville
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The boundary between Oakland Co and Wayne Co defines the geography of this mid-century map, where the sprawling suburban expansion of Southeast Michigan is visible in purple revision tint. The landscape is characterized by its institutional complexes and expansive cemeteries, including the massive Northville State Hospital and the Plymouth State Home and Training Sch. The rail lines of the Chesapeake and Ohio connect the centers of Northville and Plymouth, while the northern portion of the quadrangle shows the growth of Novi and Farmington. Numerous golf courses, such as the Meadowbrook Country Club and Whispering Willows Golf Course, appear alongside residential developments like Grand View Acres. Educational and religious sites are frequent, from St John Seminary to Schoolcraft College, documenting a period of significant civic and social infrastructure building.
