1944 Map of Angola

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The town of Angola serves as a central hub on this 1944 War Department survey, where three major rail lines—the Pennsylvania, Nickel Plate, and New York Central—converge to navigate the coastal terrain of Erie County. This wartime era documentation highlights a landscape transitioning from rural agricultural tracts to established lakeshore communities. The shoreline along Lake Erie is densely marked with summer settlements and public spaces, including the Buffalo Municipal Bathing Beach and the residential clusters of Angola on the Lake and Lake Erie Beach.
