1983 Map of South Bend
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
South Bend and its industrial corridor are established here alongside the winding St Joseph River, anchoring a cross-border region of northern Indiana and southern Michigan. The map highlights a significant concentration of educational institutions, including the University of Notre Dame, St Marys College, and Bethel College, while Andrews University lies further north. Along the shoreline of Lake Michigan, the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore protects a landscape of high dunes like Mount Tom and Mount Baldy. Further inland, the transportation network is defined by the Indiana Toll Road and various lines of the Conrail and Grand Trunk Western RR. The southern portion reveals the vast wetlands of the Kankakee State Fish and Wildlife Area, illustrating the transition from dense urban centers like Mishawaka and Elkhart to significant conservation lands.
