1945 Map of Arena

About this map

The East Branch Delaware River winds through the northern portion of this Catskill terrain, marking a landscape defined by steep ridges and narrow stream valleys. The settlement of Arena serves as a primary hub near the river, while smaller mountain hamlets like Grant Mills and Turnwood are tucked away along the Mill Brook and Beaver Kill drainage systems. This 1945 field check preserves the location of rural infrastructure before mid-century changes, including the Old Stone Sch and School No 8.
