2013 Map of Port Henry

About this map

Port Henry sits on the western shore of Lake Champlain, serving as a primary focal point for this survey of the New York-Vermont borderlands. The village’s waterfront is marked by the Town Pier of Port Henry and the Van Slooten Harbour Marina, reflecting the long-standing maritime character of the region. Across the water, the landscape shifts to the Vermont side with settlements like West Addison and landmarks such as Chimney Point and Crown Point. The narrow connection between the two states is dominated by the Lake Champlain Toll Bridge and the nearby Crown Point Light. In the interior of Essex County, the terrain rises sharply into named peaks like Cheney Mtn and Bald Peak, while family and community history is preserved in sites like the Walton Cem, Stevenson Cem, and the Black Watch Farm.
