USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Union City serves as the focal point of this postwar landscape where the St Joseph River meets the Michigan Central Railroad. The presence of the Union City Dam on Union Lake highlights the importance of water management for local power and industry in the late 1940s. The surrounding townships of Athens, Sherwood, and Burlington are dotted with small-scale agricultural landmarks, including an exceptional number of named country schools such as the Old Red Sch, Brick Sch, and Cobblestone Sch.
