2014 Map of Rockwood

About this map

The Huron River flows into the western edge of Lake Erie, defining the landscape of this coastal Wayne and Monroe County region. The map captures the intricate shoreline and island chains of the Detroit River outlet, including Celeron Island, Hickory Island, and Swan Island. Coastal settlements such as Gibraltar, Maple Beach, and Cherry Island are shown amidst a network of drainage canals and creeks like the Frank and Poet Drain and Mouille Creek. This survey provides a clear view of the industrial and residential development south of Trenton, where inland features like Quarry Lake and the Conrail railroad lines interface with the marshy grounds of Point Mouille. Local history is preserved through the inclusion of several burial sites, such as Saint Marys Cem and Gibraltar Cem, alongside infrastructure like the Grosse Ile Municipal Airport.
