1900 Map of Macedon

USGS Topo · Published 1904

About this map

The Erie Canal cuts a definitive path through this corridor east of Rochester, serving as the central artery for commerce and settlement at the end of the nineteenth century. Several established villages like Fairport and Macedon anchor the canal route, while the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. and the West Shore R. R. parallel the waterway, illustrating the evolution of New York's transport network. Further north, the Ridge Road provides a terrestrial backbone for agricultural communities such as Webster, Union Hill, and Ontario. Near the shores of Lake Ontario, smaller hamlets like Lakeside and Furnaceville appear alongside seasonal points like Ninemile Pt. The landscape transitions from the lakefront plains to the more varied elevations of the southern portion, where Turk Hill and Baker Hill rise above the surrounding terrain near Bushnell Basin.
