1957 Map of Newburgh

About this map

The U S Military Reservation Stewart Air Force Base and the emerging corridor of the Thruway define the mid-century development of the western bank of the Hudson River. In the city of Newburgh, dense urban detail reveals landmarks such as the Free Academy, St Lukes Hospital, and Downing Park. The landscape transitions from this industrial and civic hub into rural upland communities like Plattekill and Leptondale, where small landmarks like Our Lady of Fatima Ch and the Union Grove Sch mark the social centers of the era. To the west, Orange Lake remains a prominent feature, complete with the Pine Pt Casino, while the steep ridges of Marlborough Mountain overlook the valley's mix of apple orchards and spreading residential post-war growth.
