About this map

Niagara Falls sits at the precipice of the border between the United States and Canada in this early 21st-century survey. The urban grid of the city extends to the very edge of the river gorge, where major infrastructure such as the Whirlpool Rapids Bridge and the Michigan Central Railway Bridge span the Niagara River. The map highlights the complex geography of the falls area, including Goat Island and the smaller Three Sisters Islands situated among the cascading waters.

Further inland, the landscape includes established community landmarks like Oakwood Cemetery and Saint Josephs Cemetery. The road network, featuring Robert Moses Pkwy and Lockport Rd, illustrates the modern connectivity of the region. Natural drainage patterns are visible through the course of Gill Creek as it winds through the city toward the river. This documentation provides a clear view of the parklands and urban density surrounding the American Falls before significant modern redevelopments changed the shoreline vistas.
