About this map

The confluence of the Esopus Creek and Rondout Creek valleys defines the landscape around the historic city of Kingston, providing a clear look at the region's complex transition from upland ridges to riverside settlements. Near the city center, the Ulster County Courthouse and established grounds like Wiltwyck Cemetery and Saint Peters Cemetery mark the civic and cultural heart of the area.

Further west, the terrain rises toward Bluestone Ridge and Jockey Hill, with the massive Ashokan Reservoir East Basin appearing along the northwestern edge. The map traces modern corridors like the Onteora Trail as they pass through smaller communities such as Stony Hollow and Hurley. This modern survey documents the persistent patterns of settlement along the ancient water routes and the sprawling residential growth in places like Rolling Meadows and Lincoln Park.
