About this map

Gardiners Bay and the surrounding islands of eastern Long Island are captured here during a transitional era of coastal defense and maritime commerce. The map centers on the prominent hook of Gardiners Island, featuring landmarks such as Whale Hill, Bostwick Bay, and Tobacco Lot Bay. To the north, Fort Terry stands on Plum Island, marking a significant military presence overlooking Plum Gut and the strategic steamboat routes that navigated these waters between Long Island Sound and Block Island Sound.
