1963 Map of Clermont

About this map

Roe Liff Jansen Kill carves a winding path through this early 1960s landscape, marking the transition between the rolling uplands of Livingston and Clermont. The map captures a rural economy defined by scattered hamlets and local industry, such as Bingham Mills and Red Hook Mills, which were historically tied to the area's many waterways. The New York Central Railroad corridor and the Taconic State Parkway facilitate movement across the Columbia and Dutchess County line, connecting local centers like Upper Red Hook and Nevis to the broader Hudson Valley.
