2019 Map of Utica

About this map

The Clinton River and its various tributaries, including the Middle Br Clinton River, anchor the landscape of this suburban Macomb and Oakland County corridor. In 2019, the area reflects a modern residential and recreational network built atop early agricultural settlements. The Macomb Orchard Rail Trail follows a historical rail corridor through the heart of the sheet, connecting towns like Washington and Shelby. This survey captures the preservation of the past through numerous burial grounds, such as Mount Vernon Cem and the Saint Lawrence Cem, alongside larger recreational features like Stony Creek Lake. The transition from the more established streets of Utica and Sterling Heights in the south to the open spaces around Mount Vernon in the north reveals the ongoing suburban development of the region. Local landmarks like the Quarry near Stony Creek and the Old Canal trace the area's industrial and hydraulic history.
