1956 Map of East Hampton

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

East Hampton and the nearby hamlet of Amagansett are shown during a period of steady mid-century growth, still defined by the historic corridor of the Long Island Railroad. The landscape transitions from the concentrated village centers to outlying coastal settlements like Wainscott and Georgica. Along the shoreline, prominent water bodies such as Georgica Pond, Hook Pond, and Wainscott Pond separate the residential clusters from the Atlantic Ocean beaches. Local genealogy is well-documented through numerous burial grounds, including St Philomena's Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and Cedar Lawn Cem. Further inland, the map reveals industrial and infrastructure sites like the East Hampton Airport and several Gravel Pits, while the Stoney Lookout Tower stands as a landmark on Stoney Hill. This survey captures the East End before the extensive modern development of the late 20th century.
