2019 Map of Braddock Heights

About this map

Lake Ontario defines the northern edge of this coastal landscape, where a series of prominent bays and ponds shape the residential and ecological character of the shoreline. The Lake Ontario State Pkwy serves as the primary artery connecting the various waterfront communities, including Braddock Heights, Grand View Heights, and Crescent Beach. These settlements are situated on narrow strips of land between the open lake and interior wetlands like Braddock Bay, Cranberry Pond, and Long Pond. Further inland, the terrain rises toward Frisbee Hill and the community of North Greece. This map reveals a complex network of creeks, such as Salmon Creek, Buttonwood Creek, and Northrup Creek, which drain into the marshy lagoons. Smaller residential clusters like Island Cottage Beach and Payne Beach highlight the area's development as a series of distinct lakeside neighborhoods separated by significant natural water bodies and points like Braddock Point and Beatty Point.
