1947 Map of Freeport
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
Roosevelt Field and Mitchell Field anchor the northern landscape of this post-war Nassau County survey, reflecting the region's mid-century identity as a hub for early aviation. The coastal marshlands around Freeport and Baldwin are intricately mapped, showing the complex network of islands like Cuba Island and Middle Island before modern shoreline stabilization. Inland, the rapid transition from agrarian estates to suburban residential blocks is evident in Garden City and Hempstead.
