About this map

Lake Erie defines the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the marshy peninsula of the Cedar Point National Wildlife Refuge extends into Maumee Bay. The 1960s terrain is a complex network of managed wetlands, featuring numerous named water bodies like Widgeon Pond and Pintail Pond, alongside a sophisticated system of an Aqueduct and a Pumping Station used to control water levels in the low-lying Jerusalem township area.

Residential developments cluster tightly along the shoreline at Reno Beach and Lakeland, while the interior remains predominantly rural. Local life is centered around community landmarks such as St Lukes Ch, Our Lady of Mt Carmel Ch, and schools like Eisenhower Jr High Sch. The map documents the persistent agricultural and conservation character of Lucas County, punctuated by small settlements like Bono and Yondota and industrial footprints including a Filtration Plant and the Radio Tower (WDHO).
