USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
Lake Michigan dominates the northern horizon of this industrial landscape, where the heavy infrastructure of Northwest Indiana meets the shoreline. The map documents a dense network of transit and industry, defined by the Indiana Harbor and Buffington Harbor canal systems that cut deep into the lakefront. The sheer scale of the Oil Reservoir and various slag dumps near Whiting and East Chicago illustrates the region's legacy as a manufacturing powerhouse.
