About this map

Port Jervis sits at a critical geographic junction where the Delaware River meets the Neversink River, forming a hub of transportation and settlement in the early 1940s. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the river valley into the Shawangunk Mountains, most notably at the Hawks Nest overlook. This era shows the city and surrounding townships of Deerpark and Westfall serviced by significant rail infrastructure, including the Erie and the New York Ontario and Western lines. Local commerce and community life are grounded in landmarks like the Huguenot Airport, State Police Station, and rural educational outposts such as Huguenot Sch No 2 and Oakland Sch. Beyond the valley floor, the terrain rises toward Quarry Hill and Prospect Hill, punctuated by a series of upland water bodies including Big Pond, Little Pond, and Reservoir No 3.
