About Northwest

Monroe

Northwest Monroe, located between Telegraph Rd (US-24) and the River Raisin, is a residential and light-industrial Monroe neighborhood with a grid of side streets and a river-and-rail backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Telegraph Rd corridor near N Custer Rd, where auto shops, diners, and small storefronts set a practical, on-the-move tone. Housing leans toward mid-century ranches and compact bungalows, with larger lots appearing closer to the township edge. River Raisin National Battlefield Park adds a reflective, landscape-driven counterpoint to the commercial strips. Downtown Monroe’s independent anchors—Dorsch Memorial Library and the Monroe County Historical Museum—sit nearby for culture and local history. Sterling State Park and the Lake Erie shoreline round out the geography with big-sky recreation.

The R-2, Single-Family Residential District, is intended primarily for single-family residential development within existing mid-density neighborhoods and for associated educational and institutional uses.
