1980 Map of Hudson North

About this map

Hudson River navigation and industrial development define this corridor during the mid-to-late 20th century, particularly where the Hudson city center sits opposite the extensive Middle Ground Flats. The landscape is a complex mix of riverfront settlements like Coxsackie and Newton Hook and institutional footprints, including the Coxsackie Correctional Facility and the Firemens Home. Topographical detail reveals the prominent ridgelines of Flint Mine Hill and Lampman Hill rising above the river valley. The infrastructure of the Conrail line and the Thruway parallels the water, illustrating the region's long-standing role as a primary transportation artery. Historical continuity is visible in the numerous small burial grounds and parish markers such as St Marys Cem and Riverside Cem, while more recent development is noted through purple photorevised updates like the expansion near West Athens.
