1943 Map of Little Falls

About this map

Industrial and maritime activity defines this stretch of the Mohawk Valley during the early 1940s. The Mohawk River serves as the primary corridor for transportation, paralleled by the Barge Canal and the New York Central railroad lines. The city of Little Falls anchors the west, where terrain drops sharply toward the river, while Dolgeville sits to the north along Spruce Creek. Smaller rural hubs like Ingham Mills and Manheim Center provide a look at the inland agricultural landscape between the major water routes.
