EXPANSION TO THE WEST: Graveled Maple Rd. (running diagonally across picture) may become a city street in the not-too-distant future. Growth to date can be seen in this Ann Arbor News aerial photograph. Home Realty Co.'s 100-home Arbor Heights subdivision No. 2 (at upper left) is under construction Fritz School to right of Maple Rd. (near center of picture) has already been taken into the city school district (June, 1949). The Ann Arbor Board of Education anticipating continued growth bought a ten-acre site last June for a proposed 18-20 room elementary school. The site includes open fields (left edge of picture) and part of wooded area. The fairgrounds (at upper right) may be a community recreation center if City Council plans to buy it are carried out.

Overpass Spans Jackson Rd: A major link in the New Ann Arbor South Belt Bypass, which will carry the Detroit Expressway around Ann Arbor to a link-up with Jackson Rd. (US-12) west of Ann Arbor, is this overpass spanning Jackson Rd. Expressway traffic will cross busy Jackson Rd. on the overpass and will gain access to the highway by means of an interchange system west of the overpass. The South Belt will be opened this fall. In the background, stretching across the top of the picture, is Veterans Memorial Park. (Aerial photo by Jim Galbraith.)
