1972 Map of Port Sheldon

About this map

The Lake Michigan shoreline in Ottawa County defines this landscape, where the Pigeon River flows into Pigeon Lake before reaching the big water. By the early 1970s, this area north of Holland shows a mix of recreational and industrial development, including Camp Blodgett and a prominent Powerplant near the lake's edge. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad cuts diagonally across the townships of Grand Haven, Port Sheldon, and Robinson, connecting the settlements of Agnew and West Olive. Local life is anchored by institutions like Immanuel Ch, Harlem Ch, and the Sheldon Woods Sch. Residential patterns follow a strict grid of roads such as Lake Michigan Drive 45 and Port Sheldon Street, which separate the agricultural fields from the wooded dunes of Pine Ridge.
