Ten years before incorporation, the mostly farmland was introduced to Buick defense plant, and other companies followed. By 1941, the area was occupied by 600 houses, with a lot of their owners working for Buick, and Midland Development Company, a place building Caper Cod and Ranch style house “shells”, ready to be completed and finished by their buyers.

By 1953 Northlake’s population of mostly German, Italian, Polish, and Irish ethnicity grew to 9000. This growth continued over the following decades and by 1990 an entire Northlake’s infrastructure was overwhelmed and required major improvements and expansion.

20th century brought Michigan water to the City, building of sections of a new storm sewer system to alleviate flooding, repaving of several streets, installation of new and replacement of some old concrete sidewalks, fire hydrants, upgrading of water mains. Environmental improvements, like development of new parks and open spaces as well as a bike path also happened during the recent years.
