1951 Map of Glenville
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
Port Chester and the surrounding borderlands between New York and Connecticut exhibit a landscape defined by postwar suburban expansion and established institutional estates. The Byram River winds through the heart of the region, passing the industrial and residential centers of Glenville and Pemberwick. To the west, the massive footprint of the Westchester Airport and its associated Radio Range Sta signify the era's growing aviation infrastructure. The map reveals an area rich in private social and religious institutions, such as the Convent of the Sacred Heart, St Lukes Hospital, and numerous golf clubs including Old Oaks Country Club. North of the dense developments, the landscape is punctuated by large bodies of water like Rye Lake and Putnam Lake, interspersed with historic burying grounds such as Quaker Ridge Cem and Baptist Cem.
