1952 Map of Pontiac North

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The growing city of Pontiac anchors this 1952 culture revision, showing the transition from dense urban development to the glaciated lake country of Waterford and Orion townships. The map captures an era of post-war expansion where residential pockets like Elizabeth Lake Estates and Huron Gardens emerged alongside established institutions such as the Pontiac State Hospital and County Hospital. A striking feature of this landscape is the density of water bodies, including Lake Oakland and Lake Angelus, which shaped the local recreation and residential patterns seen in the Silver Lake Golf Course and Pontiac Country Club.
