1967 Map of Bellport

About this map

Brookhaven National Laboratory occupies a massive footprint in the northeast corner of this mid-century survey, a stark contrast to the small-scale residential developments and traditional woodlots nearby. The landscape is defined by the Carmans River corridor, which flows south through Siegfield Park and South Haven into the expansive Bellport Bay. Between the growing settlements of North Bellport and East Patchogue, the infrastructure of the postwar era is evident in the path of the Long Island Expressway and Sunrise Highway.
