1953 Map of Albany

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The State Capitol and the densely developed streets of Albany anchor this 1953 survey, which was updated in 1980 to show the suburban expansion and highway interchanges reshaping the capital district. From the established neighborhoods around Washington Park to the institutional corridor of State Teachers College and the College of St Rose, the map details a city in transition. To the northwest, the Pine Bush terrain gives way to the growing Albany County Airport and the historic Shakers settlement site near the Ann Lee Home.
