About this map

Buffalo Creek and Cazenovia Creek carve through the landscape south of Buffalo, defining the settlement patterns of Erie County during the post-war era. Small hamlets like Blossom and Spring Brook appear alongside larger centers like Orchard Park and East Aurora. The presence of the Pennsylvania RR and several local airfields, including Buffalo Air Park, Proner Airport, and Orchard Park Airport, indicates a region in transition from rural agriculture to a more connected suburban and industrial corridor.
