About this map

The Saratoga Battlefield and the prominent Bemis Heights anchor the northern landscape of this region, where the Hudson River meets a complex network of industrial and transport infrastructure. In the late 1920s, the area was a vital corridor defined by the Barge Canal and Champlain Canal, alongside major rail lines like the Delaware and Hudson and New York Central. The map documents the significant footprint of the Tomhannock Reservoir in Pittstown and the Mechanicville Reservoir, highlighting the area's role in regional water management.
