1935 Map of Mendon Ponds

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The glacial kettle lakes and drumlins of Mendon Ponds Park dominate the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, which documents the rural outskirts of Rochester before post-war suburbanization. Waterways define the northern corridor, where the active Barge Canal flows parallel to the Erie Canal (Abandoned), illustrating the evolution of New York's primary transit artery. The map provides a detailed view of institutional land use, showing the State Hospital, Iola Sanitarium, and the Monroe Co Home and Infirmary at the city's edge.
