2019 Map of Pattersonville

About this map

The Mohawk River carves through this Mohawk Valley landscape, shaping the development of riverside communities like Pattersonville and Rotterdam Junction. This 2019 survey captures the varied topography from the river flats near Swart-Island to the rising elevations of Glenville Hill and Dennison Hill. The area's agricultural and rural heritage is evident in the numerous family and community burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including Woestina Cem, Vedder Cem, and the West Glenville Reformed Cem. Small crossroads settlements like West Charlton, Green Corners, and Beyers Corners define the upland sections, connected by a network of local roads such as Sacandaga Rd and Western Ave. The presence of Westwind Farm Airport and Iwan Airfield reflects modern land use, while numerous kills and creeks, such as the Alplaus Kill and Chaughtanoonda Creek, trace the natural drainage patterns that have long influenced settlement in Schenectady and Saratoga counties.
