1954 Map of Kingston

About this map

Kingston and the eastern reaches of Lake Ontario serve as the focal point for this mid-century international survey. The landscape is defined by the complex aquatic geography where the lake narrows into the St. Lawrence River, featuring prominent landmasses such as Wolfe Island and Howe Island. On the Canadian side, the Tyendinaga Ind. Res. sits along the Bay of Quinte, while the interior is punctuated by an extensive network of lakes including Rideau Lake and Charleston Lake. This era highlights the established rail corridors of the Canadian National RR and Canadian Pacific RR which linked industrial hubs like Belleville, Trenton, and Smiths Falls. Across the border in New York, the New York Central RR serves the shoreline communities of Cape Vincent and Clayton, illustrating the cross-border transit patterns before modern highway dominance.
