About this map

The Maumee River serves as the industrial and geographic spine of this Wood County landscape, where the multi-channel waterway is dotted by islands such as Delaware Island, Grassy Island, and Clark Island. On the northern banks, significant institutional presence is visible through the Toledo State Hospital, the Maumee Valley Hospital, and the County Infirmary, while the adjacent Zoological Gardens indicates the area's recreational development. South of the river, the massive Rossford Ordnance Depot and several sprawling rail yards, including Stanley Yard and Harris Yard, underscore the region's importance as a mid-century transportation and military logistics hub. Smaller rural communities like Lime City, Moline, and Stony Ridge are interconnected by a dense grid of local roads and the tracks of the New York Central Railroad, illustrating the transition from the industrial riverfront to the agricultural interior of Wood County.
