1958 Map of Brewster

About this map

The East Branch Croton River anchors this landscape of the mid-twentieth century, winding through a complex topography of reservoirs and crossroad settlements. The village of Brewster serves as a hub, while the surrounding hills are dotted with established local landmarks like Haines Corners, Steinbeck Corners, and Deforest Corners. Large-scale water management is a defining feature of the era, seen in the expansive Bog Brook Reservoir and East Branch Reservoir, which reshape the terrain near Sodom.
