1942 Map of Lackawack

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Rondout Creek carves through the Catskill foothills in this 1942 survey, revealing a landscape on the cusp of profound change. The presence of the Merriman Dam indicates the massive engineering efforts underway to create the Rondout Reservoir, a project that would soon submerged several valley settlements. Small rural centers like Lackawack and Montela are shown at their peak development before being displaced by the rising waters.
