2023 Map of Kent

About this map

The Erie Canal cuts across the southern portion of this Orleans County landscape, passing just north of the village of Albion. This modern survey illustrates the enduring agricultural and shoreline character of the region as it meets Lake Ontario. At the mouth of Oak Orchard Creek, the community of Point Breeze sits near Brighton Cliff, while the inland terrain is defined by the winding paths of Marsh Creek and Beardsley Creek. Local history is preserved in a series of small burial grounds, including Gaines Cem, Standish Cem, and the Union Cem. The area’s aviation connections are marked by facilities such as Gaines Valley Aviation and Dawn Patrol Aviation, located between the residential clusters of Gaines and Childs. Transportation routes like the Lake Ontario State Pkwy and the historic Roosevelt Hwy connect the lakeside hamlets to the interior crossroads of Five Corners and Baldwin Corner.
