About this map

The dense suburban corridor of southern Long Island is documented here along the Nassau Co and Suffolk Co line. This landscape is defined by its extensive memorial grounds and transportation infrastructure, dominated in the north by the massive Saint Charles Cem, New Montefiore Cem, and Pinelawn Memorial Park and Garden Mausoleums. These sprawling estates contrast with the industrial and aviation hub at Republic Airport and the retail center of Sunrise Mall.

To the south, the map reveals the complex shoreline of the Great South Bay, where residential communities like Biltmore Shores, Nassau Shores, and Amity Harbor meet a network of tidal channels and salt marshes. Numerous islands including Townsend Island and Gilgo Island sit within the East West Channel, illustrating the delicate transition from mainland development to the protected barrier island environment. The map also traces the historic Long Island railroad line and major thoroughfares like the Southern State Pkwy, which facilitated the growth of established villages from Bethpage down to Amityville.
