1894 Map of Coxsackie

About this map

Hudson River commerce and industrial transport define this late 19th-century landscape, as the West Shore R. R. and the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. flank the water on both sides. The river itself is a complex network of islands and channels, including Hotaling Id. and Bronk Id., leading toward the busy riverfronts of Coxsackie and Athens. Inland, the terrain rises sharply into the distinctive hills of Greene and Albany counties, where smaller hamlets like Coeyman Hollow and Urlton developed along tributary waters such as Hannacrois Creek.
