USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
Westhampton Beach and its neighboring South Shore communities are captured in this mid-century survey, showcasing a landscape defined by the intricate waterways of Moriches Bay and the Atlantic coastline. The era's strategic footprint is clearly visible at the U S Mil Res Suffolk County Air Force Base, which occupies a large tract in the northeast. Transportation and leisure define the land use, with the Long Island Railroad providing the backbone for coastal settlements like Speonk and Eastport, while the Long Island Country Club and Westhampton Country Club highlight the area's development as a seasonal retreat.
