1967 Map of Ypsilanti West

About this map

The Ypsilanti State Hospital complex dominates the southern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, a massive institutional campus that once functioned as a self-contained community. The era's expanding highway infrastructure is evident where new interchanges cut through the townships of Pittsfield, York, and Augusta, bridging the gap between the university city of Ann Arbor and the industrial hub of Ypsilanti. Despite the growing residential subdivisions, particularly near Buhr Park and Burns Park, much of the area remains rural with numerous family-named roads like Begole Road and Talladay Road. The map documents a diverse mix of land uses, from the Ann Arbor Municipal Airport and a Drive-in Theater to several active local schools including Stone Sch and Meadowview Sch. Numerous drains and creeks, such as Warner Creek and Stony Creek, trace the natural hydrology of the Washtenaw County terrain before more intensive modern development arrived.
