1903 Map of Poughkeepsie

USGS Topo · Published 1917

About this map

Poughkeepsie serves as the industrial and academic heart of the Hudson Valley in this early 20th-century survey, flanked by institutional landmarks like Vassar College and the Hudson River State Hospital. The city’s position is defined by the Hudson River, where waterborne traffic met an intricate rail network, including the West Shore RR and the Central New England RR. To the south, manufacturing and milling centers such as Wappinger Falls and New Hamburg signify the region's reliance on the water power of Wappinger Creek.
