About Southwest

Monroe

Southwest Monroe, located between the River Raisin and I-75, is a residential and industrial Monroe neighborhood with a riverfront edge and a grid of older streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Telegraph Rd (US-24) and I-75 interchange, where auto-oriented storefronts, diners, and service shops set a steady, working-day rhythm. Housing reads as modest mid-century ranches and older frame homes, with pockets of light industry and rail-adjacent blocks shaping the streetscape. River Raisin corridors and nearby parks add open sky and seasonal color. Local staples such as Public House Food + Drink, the River Raisin National Battlefield Park Visitor Center, and the Monroe County Historical Museum ground the area’s sense of place.

R-3

Single-Family Residential District

The R-3, Single-Family Residential District, is intended primarily for single-family residential development and for associated educational and institutional uses. The permitted uses and standards of these districts are intended to achieve the following objectives: To encourage the continued use of the land for single-family dwellings which are compatible with the established character of the Citys dominant neighborhood type; To prohibit uses that would disrupt the character of the existing single-family neighborhoods; To encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses under the provisions of this chapter; To discourage land uses which would generate traffic on minor local streets atypical of that in single family neighborhoods; To accommodate low-intensity non-residential facilities where such uses could be compatible with the neighborhoods within this district.

Permitted uses

Include but are not limited to:

Housing-Single unit
Housing-Senior
Bed & breakfast
Park & open space
