The Wallkill River defines the western edge of this mid-century landscape, where the established village of New Paltz sits near the State Teachers College and St Josephs Ch. This 1950s record captures the transition from traditional rail transport to the modern highway era, showing the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad crossing the terrain while the New York State Thruway cuts a direct north-south path through the center. Small hamlets like Clintondale and Modena anchor the local road network, while the rugged profile of Illinois Mountain and Baileys Gap rises to the east. Genealogists will find value in the clear marking of cemeteries such as New Paltz Cem and Lloyd Union Cem, along with local landmarks like the DuBois Landing Field and the seasonal Camp Sunset near Lake Sunset.
