1960 Map of Lake Carmel
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
West Branch Reservoir and the surrounding watersheds of the Carmel and Kent districts dominate this 1960 revision, which reflects the significant infrastructure of the Croton water system. The landscape is defined by its numerous reservoirs and natural lakes, including Lake Gleneida and Lake Gilead, interspersed with small hills like Nimham Mount and Mount Pisgah. The map illustrates a period of mid-century residential expansion, visible in developments such as Carmel Park Estates and Brewster Heights, while maintaining ties to its rural past through numerous private clubs like the Gipsy Trail Club and Sedgewood Club.
