About this map

The Niagara River separates the industrial corridor of Buffalo and Tonawanda from the developing landscape of Grand Island during the post-war era. This survey, compiled from 1942 aerial photography and 1948 ground methods, illustrates the dense urban expansion through Kenmore and the northern reaches of Buffalo, where numerous public schools and institutional landmarks like the State Teachers College and State Hospital appear alongside a complex network of roads including Sheridan Drive.
