1955 Map of Glens Falls

About this map

Lake George and the upper reaches of the Hudson River dominate this mid-century landscape, revealing a complex mix of industrial infrastructure and growing recreational tourism. Near the southern shore of the lake, historical sites like Fort William Henry and the Fort Gage Ruins sit adjacent to established leisure spots such as Lake George Beach State Park. To the south, the industrial core of Glens Falls and Hudson Falls is well-defined, showing the dense street grids and the path of the Delaware and Hudson RR connecting the river towns.
