About this map

Byram Lake Reservoir and the New Croton Reservoir anchor this landscape of Northern Westchester, where the suburban transition meets old village centers in the early 1980s. The Mount Kisco town and village core shows a dense street grid compared to the winding roads of Bedford and the sprawling estates near Mt Aspetong. This era finds institutional land use prominently marked, from the expansive Bedford Hills Correctional Facility to the Montefiore Sanitarium and The Cenacle near Stanwood.

Transportation patterns are defined by the Conrail line through Bedford Hills and a network of named thoroughfares like Meeting House Rd and Greenwich Road. Local heritage is preserved in numerous spiritual and civic sites, including St Francis Cem, St Patricks Ch, and several district schools. The map captures the interface between the Byram River valley and the highlands of Guard Hill, illustrating how the region's topography shaped its residential and institutional development.
