About this map

The Lower River Rouge and Middle River Rouge define the hydrological character of this portion of Wayne County, winding through suburban expansion that connects Plymouth, Livonia, and Westland. During the late 1960s, this area transitioned from agricultural parcels to dense residential developments, yet retained significant pockets of local history through landmarks like Riverside Cemetery and Newburgh Cem. The intersection of major rail lines, including the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad and the Penn Central, provided the industrial backbone for the region's growth.
