1951 Map of Hammond

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Black Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its intricate shoreline defined by Lonesome Bay and Mile Arm Bay. The village of Hammond serves as the central hub, situated along the New York Central railroad line that cuts diagonally across the terrain. To the south, the settlement of Rossie sits near the confluence of the Indian River and Grass River, highlighting the region's historical reliance on these waterways for transport and early industry. The map reveals a post-war rural infrastructure where aviation at the Hammond Airport exists alongside older burial grounds like Fineview Cemetery and Black Lake Cemetery. This era shows a transition in mobility, with established rail stops like Oakvale Station still in place while the road network begins to integrate outlying hamlets such as North Hammond and South Hammond more closely with the town center.
