1900 Map of Oyster Bay

About this map

Oyster Bay and the surrounding Gold Coast of Long Island are shown here during the late 19th-century transition from a maritime and agrarian economy to a region of prominent estates. The intricate coastline is dotted with navigation aids such as Sands Point Light and Execution Rocks L.H., marking the busy waters of Long Island Sound. Inland, the landscape is defined by the Long Island and its Port Jefferson Branch, connecting established villages like Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, and Port Washington to the growing metropolis.
