The map
Portage lies in Porter County, on the southern shore of Lake Michigan between Gary and Michigan City. It reaches the lake at a short stretch of shoreline, surrounded by some of the most important landscapes and industries of the region: the dunes of Indiana Dunes National Park on one side and the steel mills and ports of the lakeshore on the other.
On the map, Portage is made of layers. At the north edge, the lakeshore and the waterway leading to the port form strong lines. Further south, major highways cross the city from east to west, carrying traffic around the southern end of the lake. Between them are neighbourhoods of suburban streets, with parks and wooded areas along the creeks.
A Portage map poster brings the lake, the highways and the neighbourhoods together on one sheet. The Portage Lakefront and Riverwalk, a public beach and walkway created on formerly industrial land, is part of the national park. For people who live and work here, the map captures a place where industry, nature and suburban life meet.
The city touches the lake along a short stretch of shoreline, where the open water gives the top of the poster a wide, clean edge.
Major highways cross the city from east to west, heavy parallel lines that divide the map and link it to Chicago and the rest of Indiana.
Wooded creek valleys wind through the neighbourhoods, their curving lines and green spaces breaking up the regular suburban streets.

Why Portage
Portage is home for steelworkers, commuters to Chicago and families who value the dunes and the lake. A poster of the city shows how all of those pieces fit together in one place.
