1957 Map of Newburgh

About this map

The Hudson River waterfront and the expanding city of Newburgh anchor this mid-century survey of Orange County. The landscape is a transition between the dense urban grid of the river port and the rising elevations of Marlborough Mountain and Cronomer Hill. Inland, the area is defined by significant water bodies such as Chadwick Lake and Orange Lake, the latter featuring the Pine Pt Casino. The arrival of the New York State Thruway is clearly visible, cutting north-south through a region still heavily dotted with community landmarks like Our Lady of Fatima Ch and Savilton.
