1894 Map of Coxsackie

About this map

The Hudson River corridor in the late nineteenth century was a bustling artery of industry and transit, anchored by the competing West Shore R.R. and New York Central and Hudson River R.R. lines. These tracks flank the river, connecting historic riverfront hubs like New Baltimore and Coxsackie Station with smaller settlements such as Nuttenhook and Stuyvesant. The river itself is dominated by an intricate archipelago of islands including Lower Schodack Id. and Bronk Id., reflecting the complex navigation of the era.
