1994 Map of Pittsford

About this map

Mendon Ponds County Park dominates the southern landscape of this 1994 survey, showcasing a complex glacial geography featuring Devils Bathtub, Deep Pond, and Quaker Pond. To the north, the historic Erie Canalway cuts through the village of Pittsford, flanked by the New York Central railroad and a burgeoning suburban network. The map reveals a dense concentration of educational and institutional landmarks, including Nazareth College of Rochester, St John Fisher College, and the sprawling Rochester State Hospital complex near West Brighton. Notable for local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of early local sites like the Pioneer Burying Ground alongside mid-century infrastructure like the New York State Thruway and numerous radio towers. This transition from natural parkland to academic and industrial corridors reflects the suburban growth of Monroe County in the late twentieth century.
