About this map

The industrial and maritime landscape of Toledo and Oregon unfolds along the Maumee River and Maumee Bay in this mid-century survey. The area's character is defined by a dense intersection of shipping and rail infrastructure, featuring the Toledo Terminal RR and the Norfolk and Western lines serving the waterfront drydocks and numerous sludge pits. The map captures several distinct residential pockets like Harbor View, Ironville, and Momeneetown, alongside community anchors such as St Ignatius Ch and Clay High Sch.

A notable geographic detail is the interstate boundary crossing through the Erie State Game Area, where the Michigan Ohio border cuts across Maumee Bay toward North Cape. This transition from the urban density of Point Place to the open marshes and islands like Gard Island and Indian Island illustrates the geographic diversity of the Lake Erie shoreline before late-century suburban expansion fully set in.
