2017 Map of Richmond

About this map

The city of Richmond anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, where the grid of residential streets like Division Rd and Ridge St meets a wide network of agricultural drains and creeks. To the northwest, the village of Armada sits along the Macomb Orchard Rail Trail, a significant recreational corridor following a former rail line that bisects the region. The map reveals a high density of local heritage sites, including the Lenox Centre Burial Grounds and several family or community landmarks such as Willow Grove Cem, Bates Cem, and Richards Cem. Water management is a defining characteristic of this Macomb County terrain, with the Salt River and numerous engineered waterways like Jeffrey Drain and Wheeler Drain serving the surrounding farms. The southern portion of the survey is marked by the Saint Joseph's Seminary Cem and the small recreational waters of Lake Chalet, illustrating a mix of traditional land use and modern residential expansion.
