1960 Map of Croton Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Croton River drainage systems dominate this Westchester and Putnam County landscape, defined by a series of massive reservoirs and the tight rail-and-water corridors that shaped northern New York's development. Local hamlets like Croton Falls and Purdy's Station cluster along the Conrail line, reflecting the historical importance of the railroad in connecting these rural areas to the metropolitan center. Significant landmarks such as the John Jay Homestead and the Pinebrook Sanitarium sit among the hills, while numerous cemeteries like Warren Cem and Ivandell Cem offer vital clues for genealogical research. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure of the New York City water supply, including the Muscoot Reservoir, Titicus Reservoir, and various aqueduct shafts. Small settlements such as Shenorock and Lake Lincolndale show the mid-century residential expansion around existing water bodies like Lake Mahopac.
