1968 Map of Damascus

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Delaware River winds through this river valley landscape at the Pennsylvania and New York border, serving as the central artery for the river towns of Damascus and Cochecton. The Erie Lackawanna railroad line follows the eastern bank through New York, passing through small stops like Nobody Station and Smith Switch. This late 1960s survey illustrates a region defined by its waterway and high ground, including Conkling Hill and Sunny Hill. Local community life is evidenced by the Township Sch and Hillside Cem in Damascus, while the New York Turnpike and the historic Corduroy Road suggest long-established transportation routes. Downriver, Milanville sits near the turbulence of Skinners Falls, where Calkins Creek joins the main river channel, marking a point of both geographic and social significance in Wayne Co.
