1963 Map of Hyde Park

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Hudson River defines the landscape of this 1963 survey, serving as the central artery between the shores of Esopus and Hyde Park. Along the eastern bank, the proximity of the New York Central railroad tracks to the water's edge underscores the vital transportation corridor of the mid-20th century. This era is marked by a significant concentration of religious and educational institutions, including the Mt St Alphonsus Seminary, Marist Brothers Seminary, and Eymard Seminary, reflecting a localized cluster of academic and spiritual life. Preservation and history are anchored by the F D Roosevelt Home National Historic Site and the Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site, while the Esopus Meadows Lighthouse stands as a navigational sentinel in the channel. The map also captures several smaller settlements such as Staatsburg and West Park, alongside local industries represented by the Gravel Pit and Sand and Gravel Pit near the Fall Kill.
