1965 Map of Callicoon

About this map

The Delaware River carves a deep horseshoe bend through this valley, serving as a natural boundary between New York and Pennsylvania. In the mid-1960s, the village of Callicoon flourished as a riverfront hub, anchored by St Josephs Seminary and St James Ch. The transportation corridor is dominated by the Erie-Lackawanna railroad, which hugs the riverbanks, supporting local industry evidenced by numerous quarries near Hawks Nest and Basket. Moving inland from the river, the landscape transitions to the elevated Long Ridge and small farming hamlets like Fremont Center and Hortonville. Local educational and religious life is well-documented, from the Delaware Valley Central Sch to the Holy Cross Cem, providing a detailed look at the social geography of Sullivan County before late-century shifts.
