1957 Map of Gardiner

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Shawangunk Mountains rise sharply in the northwest corner of this mid-century survey, creating a dramatic backdrop for the agricultural valleys below. In the lowlands, the Wallkill River and Shawangunk Kill converge near the settlement of Ganahgote, illustrating the importance of these waterways to local development. This era shows a landscape in transition, where established rural communities like Bruynswick and New Hurley exist alongside modern infrastructure, including the Wallkill State Prison and Wright Airport. Local history is preserved through numerous family-named burial grounds such as Dubois Cem and the Bruynswick Cemetery, while the New York Central railroad corridor and the underground Catskill Aqueduct highlight the region's role as a vital transportation and utility artery serving the greater New York area.
