About this map

The Niagara River serves as the international boundary on this 2016 survey, defining the western edge of Niagara Falls and the surrounding townships. The landscape transitions from the dense urban and academic corridors around Niagara University and the Devils Hole Rapids to the more structured settlements of Lewiston and Youngstown. The map is particularly rich in genealogical sites, documenting numerous burial grounds such as Lewiston Village Cemetery, Riverdale Cemetery, and the Stella Niagara Sisters of Saint Francis Cemetery.

Modern infrastructure is anchored by the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge, which connects the region to Canada. Local history is etched into the landscape through the residential developments of Stella Niagara and Blairville, alongside small watercourses like Fourmile Creek and Fish Creek. This survey captures the region's complex mix of educational institutions, religious sites, and international transit points during the mid-2010s.
