1961 Map of Gustavus

Transportation patterns are defined by the New York Central railroad corridor cutting through the eastern townships and a dense network of local routes like York Street and Ashtabula Rd. In the northeast corner, the Shenango River and Pymatuning Reservoir provide a distinct contrast to the creek-fed lowlands of Wakefield Creek and Clear Creek. This survey captures the area before the further expansion of recreation and suburban movement altered these traditional farming townships.
