1950 Map of Geneseo

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The meandering Genesee River carves a deep valley through this mid-century landscape, separating the village of Geneseo from the western settlements of Cuylerville and Piffard. The map captures a moment when the regional economy was shifting, marked by a Salt Mine (Inactive) and the presence of the Genesee and Wyoming RR. Education and institutional growth are prominent, centered on the State University of New York at Geneseo campus and the nearby Armory. Natural features such as the dramatic Fall Brook Falls and Triphammer Falls highlight the area's characteristic gorges. Local history is well-preserved through detailed locations for the Temple Hill Cemetery and St Marys Cemetery, while recreational spaces like the Wadsworth Boy Scout Camp and Livingston Country Club illustrate the community's mid-century social fabric.
