1957 Map of Bucktown

About this map

Greene-Sullivan State Forest dominates the northeastern landscape of this territory, where the terrain is heavily marked by the region's industrial heritage. By the mid-20th century, extractive operations were a primary driver of the local economy, evidenced by several large Strip Mines and a Limestone Quarry. The transformation of the land is visible in the emergence of water bodies like Red Lake, Twin Lake, and South Lake, while later revisions to the map highlight extensive areas designated as a Reclaimed Strip Mine.
