1952 Map of St. Clair Flats

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Lake St Clair National Wildlife Refuge dominates the watery expanse of this coastal survey, where the international border between the United States and Canada cuts through the intricate marshlands of the St Clair River delta. The landscape is defined by a dense network of “highways” or water channels, such as Baltimore Highway and Chenal A Bout, which navigate around prominent landmasses like Dickinson Island and Harsens Island. This mid-century view shows the region's unique maritime character, where small settlements such as Riverside and landmarks like the Coast Guard Station serve as anchors within the shifting channels of Anchor Bay and Goose Bay. The proximity to the Walpole Island Indian Reserve across the border highlights the cross-border geography of the flats, where land and water are inextricably linked through cuts like Schweinkart Cut and local landmarks like Strawberry Island.
