1947 Map of Peekskill
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
The Hudson River dominates this mid-century landscape, serving as the central artery between the high elevations of the West Point Military Reservation and the industrial activity of Peekskill. This post-war era shows a region defined by strategic military holdings and substantial institutional architecture, including the Loretta Villa and Mt Florence estates. The industrial and transit infrastructure of the New York Central railroad follows the shoreline, connecting settlements like Verplanck and Buchanan to the larger river economy.
