1905 Map of Attica

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

The rail-and-river network of Western New York is captured in detail during the early 1900s, centered on the transit hub of Attica. This landscape is defined by the convergence of major thoroughfares including the New York Central R R, the Lehigh Valley R R, and the Erie R R, which facilitated the movement of goods through the Konawaugus Valley. Small agricultural and service communities like Darien Center, Cowlesville, and Varysburg are shown along the numerous creeks that feed the watershed, such as Cayuga Creek and Tonawanda Creek. Notable landmarks include the Almshouse in the southern portion of the sheet and local water resources like Attica Res. The topography transitions from the flatter lands of Newstead and Pembroke in the north to more varied elevations near Poland Hill and Cobble Hill, reflecting the diverse geography of the Genesee and Wyoming County borderlands.
