1900 Map of Oswego
USGS Topo · Published 1927About this map
Lake Ontario defines the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the port city of Oswego and its guardian Fort Ontario stand at the mouth of the river. Inland, the terrain is shaped by several distinct glacial drumlins and numerous water bodies, including Little Sodus Bay and Blind Sodus Bay to the west. This late 19th-century survey reveals a sophisticated transportation network of the era, featuring the Electric Railroad running parallel to the shore and major rail lines like the Rome Watertown and Ogdensburg Division and the Lehigh Valley RR converging on coastal shipping points.
