1900 Map of Harlem

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

Palisades tower over the west bank of the Hudson River, framing a dense late-nineteenth-century landscape of industrial waterways and expanding rail corridors. This survey details the complex geography of upper Manhattan and the western Bronx, where the Harlem River and Spuyten Duyvil Creek separate the boroughs. Large public tracts and institutions define the northern urban edge, including the sprawling Woodlawn Cemetery, Van Cortlandt Park, and the hilltop campus of Columbia University.
