1942 Map of Redford

About this map

Rouge River headwaters and the Upper Rouge River define this 1942 landscape as suburban expansion begins to press into the townships of Farmington, Southfield, and Livonia. The map captures a moment when large institutional properties and recreation clubs still occupied significant tracts, from the Childrens Hospital Convalescent Home and St Paul Monastery to the Kemba Gun Club. This era shows a distinctive grid of arterial roads, including the Northwestern Hy and Grand River Ave, cutting across rural drainage systems like Tarabusi Creek and Bell Branch.
