1945 Map of Pawling

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Great Swamp dominates the lowlands of this mid-century landscape, carving a wide corridor between the heights of West Mountain and Hammersly Ridge. The village of Pawling serves as the central hub, situated along the Central railroad line that parallels the swamp. This 1945 survey provides a clear view of the rural educational and social fabric of the area, noting several community landmarks such as the Stark Sch, Woodinville Sch, and the Hurd Sch. On the eastern ridges near the Connecticut border, the Quaker Hill Meeting House and a nearby Observatory sit atop the high ground near Seeley Hill. The map also captures the early recreational and residential development around Green Mountain Lake and Quaker Lake, contrasting the established agricultural crossroads like Akins Corners and Hurd Corners with the specialized facilities at the Hospital north of the village.
