1956 Map of Dannemora

About this map

Clinton State Prison and the adjacent Dannemora State Hospital dominate the northern slopes of Dannemora Mountain in this mid-century portrait of Clinton County. The landscape is defined by the industrial and institutional presence in Dannemora, where multiple burial grounds including the State Prison Cem are situated. To the south, the Saranac River powers the region, passing through settlements like Cadyville and Morrisonville where the Delaware and Hudson railroad facilitates local commerce and transport.
