About this map

Stony Island and the southwestern reach of Point Peninsula dominate this mid-century survey of the Lake Ontario shoreline. Mapped by the Tennessee Valley Authority for the War Department in 1942, the document captures a landscape defined by both its natural geography and its strategic military utility. In the town of Henderson, the U S Military Res and the Stony Point Rifle Range are clearly delineated, signaling the wartime mobilization of this coastal region.
