1950 Map of Lancaster

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Ellicott Creek and Cayuga Creek wind through this mid-century landscape, framing the rapid post-war growth of eastern Erie County. The western edge is dominated by the Buffalo Municipal Airport, while the heart of the sheet reveals a dense corridor of transportation infrastructure, including the Lehigh Valley and New York Central railroads. These lines served the industrial and residential hubs of Depew and Lancaster, where urban street grids contrast sharply with the more open terrain of Harris Hill and Wilhelm to the north.
