Lake Michigan dominates the northern expanse of this 2022 survey, meeting the industrial and residential shoreline of northern Indiana. The community of Ogden Dunes is nestled along the coast, defined by a network of local roads including Shore Dr and Ogden Rd that navigate the unique topography near the Indiana Dunes National Park. This map reveals the sharp contrast between preserved natural areas and heavy industry, as the eastern portion of the sheet is occupied by large-scale facilities such as Midwest Steel and Mittal Steel. The residential areas of Portage and Burns Harbor further illustrate the development of this Porter County corridor. The boundary between Lake Co and Porter Co is clearly delineated, extending from the land out into the open water, marking the intersection of these two influential Indiana counties.
