1903 Map of Canandaigua

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Canandaigua Lake dominates the southeastern portion of this map, its western shoreline punctuated by landings and points such as Tichenor Pt. and Grange Landing. The landscape shows a transition from the lower-lying northern townships of Victor and Farmington to the more dramatic terrain of Bristol and South Bristol to the south. This turn-of-the-century topography captures a highly developed rail corridor, with the Lehigh Valley and multiple branches of the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. connecting small agricultural and milling centers. Local life centers around dispersed hamlets and crossroads like Baptist Hill and Centerfield, while the early resort character of the lake is evident at Cottage City. The map preserves the specific locations of several rural stations, including Wheeler Station and Padelford, that once served the region's transport needs before the rise of modern highways.
