1957 Map of New York
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Long Island serves as the focal point for this mid-century regional survey, illustrating the intensive post-war expansion across Nassau and Suffolk counties. The map documents the rapid suburbanization of planned communities like Levittown and industrial hubs such as Huntington Station, contrasted against the agricultural and maritime landscapes of the East End. Transportation arteries, including the Long Island RR and the Sunrise Highway, define the movement of people and commerce between the city boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens and the expanding outer reaches.
