About this map

Great Peconic Bay and Flanders Bay divide this portion of the North and South Forks, where a network of inlets and ponds defines the coastal geography. The landscape transitions from the dense agricultural and residential corridors of Northville, Aquebogue, and Mattituck in the north to the tidal marshes and swamps surrounding Flanders and Squiretown in the south. This late-2010s survey captures the region's historic identity through its numerous cemeteries, such as Sound Avenue Cem and Jamesport Cem, which reflect generations of family settlements along the primary arteries of Sound Ave and Main Rd.

The maritime character of the area is evident at Canoe Place, where the land narrows significantly between the bays, and at prominent coastal landmarks like Red Cedar Point and Miamogue Point. Aviation history is represented by the Mattituck Airport, while natural freshwater features like Laurel Lake and Bellows Pond provide contrast to the surrounding saltwater sounds and creeks. This study highlights the enduring layout of Long Island's eastern hamlets amidst a complex system of waterways and protected wetlands.
