1903 Map of Newburg

USGS Topo · Published 1903

About this map

Shawangunk Mountains rise in the northwest corner of this 1903 survey, overlooking a valley dominated by the winding path of the Wallkill River. The landscape reflects a bustling early-century economy defined by agricultural hamlets and growing industrial centers like Walden, where Walden Brook meets the river. Transportation networks are particularly dense, featuring the Central New England RR and the New England RR, alongside early electric transit lines like the Newpaltz and Poughkeepsie Electric. One notable industrial landmark is the Powder Works south of Orange Lake, positioned near the developing outskirts of Newburgh. Small settlements such as Ireland Corners, Ardonia, and St. Andrew dot the landscape between the larger hubs of Newpaltz and Montgomery, illustrating the intricate network of trade and travel before the era of modern highways.
