1964 Map of Mohonk Lake

About this map

Rondout Creek meanders through the central valley of this mid-century landscape, linking the historic hamlets of Accord, Alligerville, and High Falls. The map reveals a diversified rural economy where agriculture, recreation, and local industry intersect, featuring several quarries and sandpits alongside landmarks like Camp Shangri La and the St Marys Convent. Transportation and infrastructure are prominent, with the Accord Speedway and local airfields like Anderson Acres Airport serving the area, while the Aqueduct Siphon House marks the vital water system transit. To the southeast, the terrain rises sharply into the Shawangunk Mountains, where the elevation reaches Mohonk Lake and Eagle Cliff. This 1964 field-checked survey preserves the layout of Ulster County before significant modern suburbanization, documenting numerous family and community landmarks such as Fairview Cem and Clove Chapel.
