About this map

The dense urban grid of Albany and the developing suburbs of Colonie are documented here during a period of significant post-war expansion. The transportation network is dominated by the New York Central railroad and the New York State Thruway, illustrating the era's shift toward high-speed automotive travel. Institutional presence is a defining feature, with the grounds of Siena College, College of St Rose, and the Ann Lee Home occupying prominent positions.
