1902 Map of Broadalbin

USGS Topo · Published 1933

About this map

Sacandaga Reservoir dominates the landscape of this 1933 reprint, which reflects the significant hydrological changes occurring in the southern Adirondack region. The flooding of the valley submerged several historic sites and altered the course of the Sacandaga River, while communities like Northampton (Fishhouse) and Osborn Bridge appear at the water's edge or within the newly created basin. The presence of the F. J. & G. R. R. through Vail Mills and Broadalbin illustrates the industrial and transit connections between the tanning and textile centers of Fulton County and the recreational destinations of the north, such as Sacandaga Park. Smaller industrial hamlets like Hagedorns Mills and Union Mills are visible along the numerous creeks, while the southern reaches toward Perth and Galway show a transition to more open, agricultural terrain marked by early reservoirs including the Amsterdam Reservoir.
