1907 Map of Massena

USGS Topo · Published 1929

About this map

St Lawrence River and its complex network of islands and rapids define this border region at the turn of the century. The map illustrates the industrial emergence of Massena, linked by the Massena Power Canal to the river's flow. Large islands like Barnhart Island and Sheek Island dominate the northern channel, bordered by the Cornwall Canal on the Canadian side. This era shows the convergence of multiple rail lines, including the Grand Trunk RR and the Norwood and Rutland RR, which serviced the growing paper and milling centers. Smaller communities such as Massena Springs, Raymondville, and Brasher Falls are depicted along the winding paths of the Raquette River and St Regis River, providing a detailed look at St. Lawrence County before modern hydroelectric projects transformed the river's geography.
