About this map

The Erie Canal cuts across the southern portion of this landscape, anchoring a series of small canal-side communities like Gaines Basin, Brockville, and Hulberton. At this time in the late 19th century, the canal remained a vital artery of commerce for Orleans County, paralleled by the developing rail infrastructure further north. The Rome Watertown and Ogdensburg R. R. connects the settlements of Waterport Sta. and Carlton Sta., facilitating the transport of agricultural goods from the interior orchards toward Lake Ontario.
