2019 Map of Ogden Dunes

About this map

Lake Michigan dominates the northern expanse of this coastal survey, where the waters of the Great Lakes meet the industrial and protected landscapes of Northwest Indiana. The shoreline is a study in contrasting land use, featuring the preserved sands of Indiana Dunes National Park alongside the heavy industry of Midwest Steel and Mittal Steel. Residential settlements are concentrated in the residential enclave of Ogden Dunes and the northern reaches of Portage. The map provides a clear view of the complex road network serving the lakeshore, including Shore Dr and Ogden Rd, while marking the municipal transition at the Lake Co Porter Co boundary. To the east, the port and industrial facilities at Burns Harbor signify the area's continued importance as a regional transportation and manufacturing hub.
