1942 Map of Redford

About this map

The River Rouge and its winding tributaries, including the Bell Branch and Tarabusi Creek, anchor this detailed look at Northwest Detroit and its surrounding suburbs during the early 1940s. The landscape reflects a transitional period where established farming communities like Farmington and Clarenceville met the expanding grid of the city. A high concentration of educational and charitable institutions is evident, from the Childrens Hospital Convalescent Home to numerous local schools like Hettie Bristol Sch and John Grace Sch.
