About this map

Briarcliff Manor and the surrounding Westchester hills are defined by a complex network of reservoirs and suburban expansion in this modern survey. The massive New Croton Reservoir dominates the northern landscape, crossed by the New Croton Reservoir Bridge and Hunters Brook Bridge. This area serves as a critical watershed, where numerous smaller bodies of water like Teatown Lake and Indian Brook Reservoir are interspersed between growing residential pockets.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds, including Saint Augustines Cem near Ossining and the Methodist Episcopal Church Cem in Pleasantville. The map captures the infrastructure of the early 21st century, with major arteries like the Taconic State Pkwy and Saw Mill River Pkwy facilitating movement between historic hamlets like Chappaqua and Kitchawan. Traces of earlier industry remain visible at Oil Mill Hill, while the Kehilath Yakov Rabbinical Seminary represents the area's diverse institutional history.
