About this map

Canton serves as the focal point of this Saint Lawrence County survey, dominated by the campus of St Lawrence Univ and the winding course of the Grass River. The town's grid is dense with residential streets like Stillman Dr and Romoda Dr, while the surrounding landscape reveals a deep history of rural burial grounds including Fairview Cem and Saint Marys Cem.

Outside the central village, the landscape transitions into agricultural and small-scale settlements such as Pyrites to the south and Eddy to the west. Evidence of the region’s farming heritage is preserved in labels for the McCollum Farm and Fullers Farm, while the Hurlbut Field Airport and Oliver D Appleton Golf Course indicate modern land use patterns. Numerous watercourses, from Church Brook to Tracy Brook, cut through the terrain, illustrating the hydrologic network that historically supported this northern New York community.
