1968 Map of Redford

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The River Rouge and its various branches, including Bell Creek and Tarabusi Creek, carve through the suburban expansion of Livonia and Redford during the late 1960s. This period of rapid growth is evident in the dense network of schools and churches, such as Our Lady of Mercy High Sch and St Michael Sch, alongside large institutional landscapes. Notable landmarks like the Detroit Race Course and the Holy Sepulchre Cemetery occupy significant acreage, while the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor provides an industrial backbone at the southern edge. The map captures the transition of the Oakland and Wayne County border from open land to a contiguous residential fabric, punctuated by green spaces like Eliza Howell Park and the Western Golf and Country Club.
