1965 Map of Orchard Park

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Cazenovia Creek and Buffalo Creek define the landscape of eastern Erie County in the mid-1960s, winding through growing suburban settlements. The area shows a transition from agricultural use to institutional and residential development, anchored by major sites like the West Seneca State School and St John Vianney Seminary. Local aviation history is well-represented by the Buffalo Airpark, Orchard Park Airport, and Proner Airport, reflecting the era's infrastructure needs. The map records numerous smaller communities such as New Ebenezer, Blossom, and Spring Brook, along with specialized landmarks like the Pet Cem and Orchard Park Country Club. The rail network of the Pennsylvania RR and Baltimore and Ohio RR remains a prominent feature, cutting across the creek valleys and connecting these established towns and hamlets.
