1898 Map of Fonda
USGS Topo · Published 1898About this map
The Mohawk River corridor dominates this late 19th-century landscape, serving as a congested artery for New York's industrial and transport networks. Two major rail lines, the New York Central and Hudson River and the West Shore R. R., parallel the riverbanks, while the Erie Canal cuts through the valley floor, passing through the twin centers of Fonda and Fultonville. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure required to manage these competing transit modes, including numerous bridges and tight canal-side settlements like Yosts and Auriesville.
