1936 Map of Selfridge Field

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The waters of Lake Saint Clair meet the sprawling military presence at Selfridge Field in this 1930s coastal study of Macomb County. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Clinton River and its branches, which carve through the townships of Clinton and Harrison. This era shows a community in transition, where established infrastructure like the Mt Clemens Municipal Water Works and the Gowanic Golf and Country Club sits alongside numerous educational and medical institutions. Genealogists and local historians can locate early 20th-century neighborhood hubs such as Lakeside and St Clair Haven, as well as several rural schools including Newton Sch and the Herman Klix Sch. The map also captures the shoreline geometry near Sand Point and Compau Bay before significant late-century residential development altered the marshy drainage patterns of the Savant Drain and Gohl Drain.
