1955 Map of Boonville

About this map

Boonville serves as the central hub of this mid-century survey, situated at the junction where the New York Central railroad meets a network of waterways and early roads. The landscape is defined by the steep descent of the Black River and the Lansing Kill, which carve through the Boonville Gorge State Park past Pixley Falls. This area illustrates a transition from the industrial and transport activity near the Fairgrounds and Boonville Landing Field to the managed woodlands of the State Reforestation Area.
