About this map

Northport and its neighboring villages line the jagged southern shore of Long Island Sound, where the terrain is deeply indented by harbor basins and protected coves. This 2019 survey captures the developed residential character of the Suffolk County coastline, from the narrow spit of Asharoken to the inland neighborhoods of East Northport and Vernon Valley. The landscape is notably dense with commemorative sites, including the Northport Rural Cem and the Old Northport Cem, reflecting a long history of local settlement that predates the modern street grid.

Water dominates the geography, with Northport Harbor and Duck Island Harbor providing sheltered anchorage separated by landforms like Bluff Point. To the east, the environment shifts toward the open space of Sunken Meadow, where Sunken Meadow Creek flows toward Smithtown Bay. This map traces the transition from the maritime industry and recreation of the waterfront to the established suburban reaches of Fort Salonga and Middleville.
