1923 Map of Arcade

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Cattaraugus Creek winds along the southern edge of this 1923 survey, defining a landscape of high plateau dairy country and early 20th-century rail corridors. The Arcade and Attica and Pennsylvania railroads intersect at the bustling village of Arcade, while the Rochester and Pittsburgh cuts through the eastern hills near Bliss. This era shows a dense network of local schoolhouses, such as School No 12 and Cattaraugus Road School, which served the many crossroad hamlets like Strykersville, Java Center, and Johnsonburg. Named roads like Telegraph Road and Peter Bolt Road connect family-named junctions, including Punkshera Corners and Finks Corners. The terrain is marked by steep gullies and natural features like Java Lake and Angel Falls, illustrating the transition from agricultural valley floors to the high ridges of Crow Hill.
