About this map

The Maumee River and its industrial rail corridors define this landscape south of Toledo in the early 21st century. The map reveals the intense concentration of transportation infrastructure, including massive rail operations at Stanley Yard, Harris Yard, and Gould Yard. These yards flank the suburban growth of Rossford and Perrysburg, where numerous residential developments such as Glenwood Addition, Holiday Park, and Oak Meadows have filled in the spaces between the historic riverfront and the hinterlands.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant detail in the placement of numerous burial sites, including the Toledo State Hospital Cemetery and Sunshine Cemetery. The landscape transitions from the river islands like Marengo Island and Grassy Island to the interior, where the Rockland Quarry and the settlement of Stony Ridge sit near the crossing of Henry Creek. This survey provides a precise look at the suburbanization and persistent industrial character of Wood and Lucas counties.
