1967 Map of Wyandotte

About this map

The industrialized riverfront of the Detroit River south of the city dominates this 1967 survey, showing the heavy infrastructure and dense residential growth of the Downriver communities. The map tracks the vital transportation corridors of the Detroit Toledo and Ironton Railroad and Detroit and Toledo Shore Line as they move through Wyandotte and Trenton. Large-scale industrial land use is evident at the Sibley Quarry, while the river itself is defined by industrial islands and navigation aids like Ballards Reef.
