1981 Map of Sturgeon Bay East

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Sturgeon Bay serves as a vital maritime gateway in this early 1980s bathymetric and topographic survey, where the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal bisects the Door Peninsula to connect the bay with Lake Michigan. The map details a sophisticated coastal infrastructure, featuring the U S Coast Guard Station and several aids to navigation alongside the deep-water canal. Inland, the landscape transition from the urban center of the county seat to the agricultural and recreational lands of Sevastopol and Clay Banks is evident. Local life is centered around established institutions like St Joseph Ch, St Joseph Sch, and the NE Wis Tech Inst. The presence of a Drive-in Theater and multiple Trailer Parks near Institute reflects the mid-century suburban and seasonal growth of the region, while the extensive Quarries and Gravel Pits north of Hornspur Road point to the area's extractive industry.
