1957 Map of Newburgh

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Newburgh anchors the southeastern corner of this mid-century landscape, positioned along the Hudson River where the Erie Railroad once funneled commerce through its urban streets. The map reveals a region in transition as the New York State Thruway cuts through the rural tracts of Plattekill and Newburgh town, signaling the modern era's encroachment on older crossroads like Savilton and Leptondale. To the west, Orange Lake remains a focal point for recreation, noted by the presence of the Pine Pt Casino. The terrain is defined by the sharp rise of Marlboro Mountain in the north and the rolling hills around Cronomer Hill, while numerous spiritual and educational institutions, including Our Lady of Hope Seminary and Mt St Marys Academy, appear as established local landmarks. Suburban development is visible expanding from the city center toward Balmville and Gardnertown, yet large green spaces like Algonquin Park persist between the growing neighborhoods.
