1969 Map of New York

About this map

Long Island stretches eastward toward Montauk Point in this comprehensive study of the metropolitan and coastal landscape at the end of the 1960s. The map captures the dense post-war suburban development across Nassau County and Suffolk County, where planned communities like Levittown and industrial hubs such as Hicksville had recently transformed the landscape. Significant aviation and military infrastructure is visible, including Idlewild NY International Airport just before its renaming, and several tactical air bases like Mitchel AFB.
