2019 Map of Massena

About this map

Massena occupies a strategic position at the confluence of northern New York's major waterways, where the Grass River and Raquette River flow parallel toward the international border. This modern topography illustrates the complex water management of the region, featuring the Saint Lawrence Seaway and the expansive Lake St. Lawrence created by hydroelectric development. The village's industrial and residential footprint extends south to Massena Springs, while the surrounding landscape is marked by historical burial grounds such as Kent Mill Cem and Pine Grove Cem. Near the northern boundary, the Canada-United States border bisects the water, leaving Croil Island and the Long Sault Islands as significant landmasses in the river channel. The dense grid of Massena's streets, including Saint Regis Blvd, contrasts with the outlying rural roads like Ridge Road in Louisville, reflecting a century of growth as a regional hub.
