1956 Map of Mohegan Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Mohansic State Park and the surrounding Westchester and Putnam county landscapes showcase a region defined by its water resources and institutional heritage. At the center, Yorktown and Yorktown Heights serve as primary hubs, while the expansive waters of Amawalk Reservoir and the New Croton Reservoir illustrate the area's role in the regional watershed system. The presence of Loyola Seminary and various religious landmarks like St Georges Ch and Church of the Hill reflect the community's mid-century social fabric. Local topography is marked by named summits such as Turkey Mountain and Granite Mtn, with many smaller residential clusters like Shrub Oak and Jefferson Valley interconnected by established routes like the Taconic State Parkway. The map also captures several cemeteries, including Lawson Cem, and facilities like the Home for the Aged, providing vital data points for local genealogists studying the evolution of these towns.
