1967 Map of Howells Point

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The coastal transition of the Bellport and Shirley waterfronts characterizes this 1967 survey, where the suburban development of southern Long Island meets the expansive waters of the Great South Bay. Based on field checks conducted by the Geological Survey and hydrographic data from USC&GS charts, the map documents the relationship between these established settlements and the natural barrier beach system. The settlement patterns in Shirley show the grid-style expansion typical of post-war residential growth in Suffolk County, contrasting with the more compact harbor-oriented layout of Bellport. This document serves as a record of the shoreline before significant modern alterations, capturing the specific extent of reach and road networks as they existed in the late 1960s.
