About this map

The confluence of the Hudson River, Mohawk River, and Hoosic River anchor this mid-century look at the industrial and historical heart of New York's Capital District. The landscape is defined by the evolution of inland navigation, showing the Champlain Canal and Erie Canal alongside the Champlain Canal (Abandoned). Significant early 20th-century infrastructure is evident, including the Tomhannock Reservoir and several municipal water supplies like the Mechanicville Reservoir.
