1956 Map of Middle Island

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Long Island Sound borders the northern reaches of this mid-century Suffolk County landscape, where the settlements of Sound Beach and Rocky Point show established residential grids. Moving inland, the terrain transitions into the wooded expanses of Brookhaven, characterized by a complex network of historic transit routes including North Country Road, Whiskey Road, and an Old RR Grade. The map captures a moment when large institutional footprints were becoming prominent, such as the U S Reservation Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Middle Island Game Farm.
