1980 Map of Hudson South

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Hudson River dominates this landscape, serving as a vital industrial and cultural corridor connecting settlements like Hudson, Catskill, and Germantown. On the eastern bluffs, the Olana Historic Site overlooks the water from Churchs Hill, preserving the estate of Frederic Edwin Church. The riverbanks are marked by heavy transportation and maritime infrastructure, from the Rip Van Winkle Bridge to the Conrail tracks following the shoreline. Numerous maritime landmarks such as Burden Dock and Washburn Dock reflect the river's historical role in commerce. Further inland, the map captures a transition to institutional and agricultural land use, including the State School for Girls and several cemeteries like Livingston Reformed Cem. The presence of several quarries near Becraft Hills and the winding Roeliff Jansen Kill further define the geography of the Columbia and Greene county borderlands.
