The Putnam County Courthouse serves as a central landmark in this landscape of significant reservoirs and glacial terrain. The community of Lake Carmel is situated north of the seat at Carmel, where the West Branch Reservoir and Lake Gleneida dominate the local geography. This area is characterized by a high density of small-scale burial grounds and historic churchyards, such as the Smalley Burial Ground and the Old Baptist Cem, which offer significant data points for genealogical research. The complex hydrological system, including the Middle Branch Reservoir and Croton Falls Reservoir, underscores the region's importance to the New York City watershed system.
