1966 Map of Hudson Falls

About this map

The Hudson River dictates the industrial and civic layout of the Upper Hudson Valley in the mid-1960s, serving as the border between Warren Co, Washington Co, and Saratoga Co. The landscape is dominated by the complex hydraulics of the Champlain Canal and the Old Champlain Canal, which intersect with the Feeder Canal to support the local mills and transit networks. This era shows the urban centers of Glens Falls, Hudson Falls, and Fort Edward in a state of high density, with residential blocks expanding toward South Glens Falls and the institutional campus of Adirondack Community College.
