1971 Map of Clifton

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The town of Chili and its surrounding hamlets are defined by a complex network of waterways and early 1970s transportation infrastructure. The New York State Thruway cuts through the center of the landscape, bypassing established settlements like Clifton and North Chili. To the north, the Penn Central rail line runs parallel to Telephone Road, while the southern reaches near Garbutt and Scottsville are influenced by the winding course of Oatka Creek. Educational and civic life is anchored by Roberts Wesleyan College and the Churchville-Chili High School. Land use in this era shows a transition from agricultural fields to recreational spaces, evidenced by the development of Black Creek Park and the Chili Country Club. Small clusters of industry and utility are visible at the Fish Hatchery and several Gravel Pits, reflecting the regional reliance on local natural resources and water management.
