About this map

The St Lawrence River forms a wide, island-studded border between the United States and Canada, defining the northern edge of this riverfront landscape. The village of Morristown serves as a focal point, where the Penn Central railroad meets the shoreline near Morristown Bay and the historic St Johns Sch. Inland, the terrain is shaped by a grid of rural routes with local names like English Settlement Road, Yankee Street, and Potato Street, reflecting the area's agricultural roots.

Local history is preserved in several burial grounds including Pine Hill Cem and Sunnyside Cem. The settlement of Brier Hill and its nearby Brier Hill Station mark the rail line's path south toward Chippewa Creek. Along the river, recreational and seasonal developments such as Jacques Cartier State Park, Terrace Park, and Edgewater Park utilize the shoreline topography near Chapman Point and McNair Island.
