About this map

Lake Michigan dominates the eastern expanse of this coastal survey, where the urban corridor of Lake County meets the shoreline. The industrial and residential reach of Waukegan and North Chicago is visible in the dense street grids and transportation arteries like the Amstutz Expy. To the south, the landscape shifts toward the wooded suburban character of Lake Bluff and Lake Forest, anchored by institutions such as Lake Forest Coll.

Several smaller enclaves and historic sites are preserved in this layout, including the rail-linked Skokie Junction and the neighborhood of Shore Acres. The map provides detailed placement of local landmarks such as Saint Marys Cem and Oakwood Cem, alongside the naval presence near Great Lakes. Waterways including the Waukegan River and Pettibone Cr drain the coastal bluffs, shaping the ravines that define the local topography.
