1972 Map of Port Sheldon

About this map

Pigeon Lake serves as a central coastal landmark on this Lake Michigan shoreline, where industrial development and seasonal recreation meet. The map reveals a landscape defined by the drainage systems of Little Pigeon Creek and the Pigeon River, alongside the industrial infrastructure of a large Powerplant and its associated Waste Disp Ponds near the lakefront. The interior is a mix of small settlements and township infrastructure, with the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor cutting diagonally through the townships of Grand Haven, Robinson, and Port Sheldon. Community life in the early 1970s is evidenced by local institutions like Harlem Ch and Sheldon Woods Sch, while the grid of numbered streets and named drives such as Hiawatha Drive show the expanding residential footprint of Ottawa County.
