2023 Map of Massena OE N

About this map

The international border with Canada defines the southern portion of this modern topographic study along the Saint Lawrence River. While the map is remarkably sparse in its nomenclature, the intricate web of secondary roads and local connectors reveals a landscape carved into long, narrow agricultural strips typical of the region's historical land division. These road patterns trace the development of rural Saint Lawrence County, where small water bodies and seasonal wetlands are dispersed across the terrain. The U.S. Geological Survey has documented this borderland as it appeared in the early 2020s, providing a clear view of the modern transit corridors and drainage patterns that characterize the northern New York countryside just across the line from Canadian territory.
